The true structure and workings of the human body are, we casually assume, everywhere the same, a universal reality. But when we look into the past, our sense of reality wavers : accounts of the body in diverse medical traditions often seem to describe mutually alien, almost unrelated worlds. How can perceptions of somethings as basic and intimate as the body differ so ? In this book, Shigehisa Kuriyama explores this fundamental question, elucidating the fascinating contrasts between the human body described in classical Greek medicine and the body as envisaged by physicians in ancient China. Revealing how perceptions of the body and conceptions of personhood are intimately linked, his comparative inquiry invite us, indeed compels us, to reassess our own habits of feeling and perceiving.
