Herophilus, a contemporary of Euclid, practiced medicine in Alexandria in the third century B. C., and seems to have been the first Western scientist to dissect the human body. He made especially impressive contributions to many branches of anatomy. Von Staden assembles the fragmentary evidence concerning one of the more important scientists of ancient Greece.
