Galen On The Natural Faculties is a book written by the ancient Greek physician Galen, and translated into English by Arthur John Brock in 1916. The book is a collection of Galen's writings on the natural faculties of the human body, including the faculties of sense perception, movement, nutrition, and reproduction. Galen's work is based on the principles of Aristotelian philosophy, and he uses his knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and pathology to explain how the natural faculties of the body work together to maintain health and well-being. The book is divided into eight sections, each of which deals with a different aspect of the natural faculties, and includes detailed descriptions of the organs and processes involved. Galen's work was highly influential in the development of Western medicine, and his ideas on the natural faculties of the body continue to be studied and debated by scholars and medical professionals today.This Book Is In English And Greek.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
