"The essays are geographically and topically diverse, ranging from Spaniards among humanist circles in mid-sixteenth-century Trent to a natural history of hypertrichosis to a study of astrological medicine in Golden Age drama. This diversity brings to the discussion more voices and more actors whose concerns with the human body highlight rivalry and collaboration across political, religious, legal, literary, and medical frameworks...This volume successfully serves to open communications within the field, to bring together isolated voices from various disciplines from medicine to theater to politics, and to pose new questions about early modern Spanish medicine."
- Michele L. Clouse, Ohio University, Bulletin of the History of Medicine, Vol 90:1
"The book's core accomplishment is to bring forward a diverse array of medical representations offered through an eclectic consideration of narrative texts ranging from the imagined to the scientific... the chapters are unified by a coherent awareness of the need for deep interdisciplinary engagement with the formation of discourses about medicine within the early modern Spanish Empire. Overall, the book is a fine contribution to scholarship which couidl profitably be emulated in other fields of cultural, Empire and medical humanities in order to close the gaps in our understanding of the perspectives, stories and experiences of colonized peoples and their various medical cultures."
- Chisomo Kalinga, University of Edinburgh, British Society for Literature and Science
"The book is drawn together in an epilogue by William Eamon. He points out that Spain was different to the rest of Europe, but that Spain also made a difference to the broader scientific revolution that occuers in the Renaissance. In summary this book encourages readers to explore a wider genre of source materials than is conventionally the case."
- Robert Weston, The University of Western Australia
