Walsh is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work examines the evolution of medical science during the Middle Ages, challenging the notion that this period was devoid of significant medical advancement. The book highlights the contributions of various physicians and medical scholars from early Christian, Jewish, and Arab backgrounds, showing how they preserved and built upon ancient Greek medical knowledge. The opening of the book lays out Walsh's intention to reshape common perceptions of medieval medicine, often dismissed as stagnant and primitive. He emphasizes that the medieval era was rich with notable medical figures who made significant strides in understanding and practicing medicine, despite prevailing challenges such as the fall of the Roman Empire and societal upheaval. Walsh hints at an overarching theme of rediscovery and lost knowledge, suggesting that many medical advancements were made only to be forgotten and later reinvented, setting the stage for the chapters to follow that detail the accomplishments of key historical medical figures of the time.
