First published in 1694. This ed. reprinted mainly from the 1550 Lyon edition. Amicus medicorum, or ""friend of physicians,"" is a seminal work on astrological medicine. The work casts multiple horoscopes. The employment of astrology as a basis for medical advice (or a prediction of mortality) has always been controversial in the western tradition.
