In the first book-length study in English of the Bencao gangmu (Systematic materia medica) of Li Shizhen (1518–1593), Nappi reveals a “cabinet of curiosities” of gems, beasts, and oddities whose author was devoted to using natural history to guide the application of natural and artificial objects as medical drugs.
