Médico y filósofo genial, profesor de la Universidad de Basilea, precursor de la medicina moderna, Paracelso rechazó la teoría médica de su época para experimentar de acuerdo con las leyes naturales y denunció los exagerados beneficios que obtenían los farmacéuticos vendiendo remedios que no servían para nada o casi nada. Enfocó su interés más en hallar la causa de la enfermedad que en administrar a ciegas remedios que no habían sido convenientemente experimentados. Ello le valió odios encarnizados, persecuciones feroces y el rechazo casi unánime de la clase médica de su tiempo. En este extraordinario tratado, Paracelso confiesa 'haber aprendido la clasificación de las plantas en fórmulas perfectas para que los enfermos encuentren un perfecto socorro'. 'Las influencias de Paracelso, doctor en dos medicinas, llegan hasta la actualidad más palpitante, como se ve en este 'herbario''. Gerhard E. Solbrig.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Paracelso

Paracelsus, pseudonym of Philippus Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim, (Einsiedeln, December 17, 1493 – Salzburg, September 24, 1541) was a Swiss-German physician, alchemist, physicist, astrologer, and occultist. He is also credited with creating the name of the element zinc, calling it... zincum.
His pseudonym means "superior to Celsus (Roman physician)". In the study of his biography, fact has been gradually separated from belief, but no agreement has been reached regarding the nature and meaning of his teaching. He is considered by many to be a reformer of medicine. He is also acclaimed for his achievements in Chemistry and as the founder of Biochemistry and Toxicology.
He appears among scientists and reformers such as Andreas Vesalius, Nicolaus Copernicus, and Georgius Agricola, and is therefore seen as a modern figure. On the other hand, he has always possessed an aura of mysticism and even the obscure reputation of a magician.
