Modern medicine has grown by means of a tradition that is almost 2,400 years old. Its practices are said to have begun on the Greek island of Cos, near the western coast of Asia Minor, where a school arose around the teachings of Hippocrates. Today the name of Hippocrates is mentioned most frequently in discussions of the Hippocratic Oath. But the Hippocratic physicians at that time did far more than introduce the oath from which
the codes of today’ s medical ethics
have developed.
Perhaps the single most striking difference between the doctors of the Hippocratic school and all others at that time, was in their firm stand that the causes of disease should no longer be related to the influence of supernatural forces. It was the Hippocratic physicians who popularized the belief that the origins of illness were to be found in observable natural factors that influenced the functions of the body. Attempts were made to relate specific symptoms to actual internal or environmental causes, rather than to the interference of displeased gods. This was a departure from physicians who were used to seeking cures by appealing to the gods with prayer and sacrifice.
As time passed other Greek physicians rejected this mysticism as well and replaced it with the thesis that the causes and cures of every disease are not only quite natural but also discoverable through the careful study of each patient. Thus curiosity, keenness of observation and the value of precise record keeping became a priority in the new philosophy of care. In this way knowledge of individual physicians became the knowledge of all. So, over the course of several hundred years, a literature, later known as Hippocratic Corpus, was created, forming the basis of all medical practice. Since that time, the accumulated and recorded knowledge of one generation has been passed on to the next through literature and via those who teach their successors. Docere, the Latin word from which the word doctor is derived, means "to teach."
What can be inferred from the passage?
