- Resum
- Galen developed a method of rational inquiry designed to solve the problems pertaining to medicine and natural science. This chapter outlines the main features of this method and shows how it is applied in dealing with specific issues. It offers an account of the significance to Galen's approach of training in logic and of logical argumentation, and in particular of the method of demonstration, while also showing the distinctiveness of this approach within its intellectual context and the relevance to it of mathematical or geometrical models of argument. The chapter explores in detail Galen's theory and practice of demonstration, using selected case studies to elucidate its use in scientific and therapeutic contexts.
