{"product_id":"9780817390372","title":"The Second Part of the Popular Errors","description":"This book is an English translation of the second volume of Laurent Joubert’s 1578 French work \u003ci\u003eErreurs Populaires\u003c\/i\u003e. In it, Joubert proposed to dispel folk remedies and folklore still relied on by doctors and care-givers in France. It also challenged medical theories and advice from classical Greek and Latin writers that French doctors followed uncritically.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Gregory de Rocher’s skill as a translator brings this highly readable and very funny book to life. Many topics central to Joubert’s thesis in the 1500s remain contemporary themes in the popular and scholarly literature of the 1980s.","brand":"University of Alabama Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47129813188848,"sku":"9780817390372","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780817390372_p0.jpg?v=1763749182","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780817390372","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
