Overview

In this ground-breaking book, distinguished consultant clinical neurophysiologist Michael Glasby turns to the Bible to ask whether the practices of the Levitical priesthood might in any way have shared features of what we now commonly call 'public healthcare', contributing to the well-being of individuals and society. Is it the case that the priesthood understood some rudimentary elements of healthcare, or is this commonly held view merely the result of modern opinion formed (perhaps inappropriately) through an accumulation of later redaction and exegesis? Michael Glasby, now retired, has held teaching and research posts at the Universities of Oxford, Cambridge, and London and was latterly Reader in Experimental Neurology in the University of Edinburgh. He is an honorary Fellow of the University of Edinburgh, a Freeman of the City of London and Liveryman of the Worshipful Society of Apothecaries of London. He is a Senior Member, The British Society for Surgery of the Hand. He received his Batchelor of Divinity degree (first class honours) from the University of London in 2009 and his PhD in Divinity from Edinburgh University in 2015.
