About the author
Julius Rosenbaum
1807–1874
A 19th-century German physician and medical historian, he is best remembered for writing boldly about sexuality, disease, and classical antiquity at a time when those subjects were rarely treated so openly. His work helped preserve an unusually wide-ranging view of medical and cultural history.
