520    "We need to talk about Hippocrates. Current scholarship 
       attributes none of the works of the 'Hippocratic corpus' 
       to him, and the ancient biographical traditions of his 
       life are not only late, but also written for their own 
       promotional purposes. Yet Hippocrates features powerfully 
       in our assumptions about ancient medicine, and our beliefs
       about what medicine -- and the physician himself -- should
       be. In both orthodox and alternative medicine, he 
       continues to be a model to be emulated. This book will 
       challenge widespread assumptions about Hippocrates (and, 
       in the process, about the history of medicine in ancient 
       Greece and beyond) and will also explore the creation of 
       modern myths about the ancient world. Why do we continue 
       to use Hippocrates, and how are new myths constructed 
       around his name? How do news stories and the internet 
       contribute to our picture of him? And what can this tell 
       us about wider popular engagements with the classical 
       world today, in memes, 'quotes' and online?"--|cProvided
