Rome Editorial Review
** The Prince of Medicine: Galen in the Roman Empire** "The Prince of Medicine: Galen in the Roman Empire" by Susan Mattern is a compelling biography that reanimates the complex and multifaceted figure of Galen, a pivotal character in the history of medicine. In a narrative where Galen was often cast as a dogmatic relic to be circumvented by modern advancements, Mattern's work shines a light on his human aspects, presenting him not merely as a historical figure but as a relatable personality. Her adept storytelling transforms Galen from a mere name associated with medical dogma into a vivid character marked by dedication and brilliance. Mattern's writing style is praised for its clarity and flow, making complex historical and medical topics accessible and engaging for readers. The biography intertwines Galen’s personal life, his prolific contributions to medicine, and the cultural backdrop of the Roman Empire, showcasing his roles as a physician, scholar, and lecturer. Notably, Galen’s remarkable commitment to patient care, illustrated through his house calls and disregard for fees, reflects a humane side often overshadowed by focus on his sometimes bizarre treatment methods. While the content is rich with engaging facts about Galen's life, his medical practices, and his influence on future generations, the book does face a few critiques. An excessive repetition of certain phrases disrupts the narrative flow, which could detract from the reader’s experience. Despite this, Mattern's scholarly approach avoids unnecessary jargon, making the book a valuable resource for anyone interested in medical history, healthcare, or ancient cultures. Overall, "The Prince of Medicine" successfully bridges the past and present, allowing modern readers to appreciate Galen not just for his mistakes, but for his significant contributions to clinical practices and patient care. The balance of positive and negative aspects of Galen’s character is represented fairly, making the biography a worthwhile read for professionals and laypeople alike. **
