De Statica Medicina is a seminal work by Santorio Santorio, an Italian physician and physiologist, originally published in 1614. This groundbreaking treatise details Santorio's meticulous experiments on insensible perspiration and metabolism. Using a specially constructed weighing chair, Santorio meticulously measured his weight and that of his food and excrement over long periods, laying the foundation for quantitative physiological research.
Written in Latin (and translated in Italian), "De Statica Medicina" offers a fascinating glimpse into the early development of metabolic studies and the application of mechanical principles to understanding the human body. Santorio's work represents a crucial step in the transition from Galenic medicine to a more empirical and quantitative approach, influencing generations of physicians and scientists. This edition makes this important historical text accessible to scholars and anyone interested in the history of medicine and science.
