The skills of the ancient Egyptians in preserving bodies through mummification are well known, but less recognized is their expertise in the everyday medical practices needed to treat the living. John F. Nunn draws on his own experience as a physician and Egyptologist to reassess the evidence on ancient Egyptian medical practices. Nunn has translated and reconsidered the original Egyptian medical papyri and has re-evaluated other sources of information, including skeletons, mummies, statues, tomb paintings, and sarcophagi. Illustrations highlight similarities in the conditions of ancient and modern patients, and Nunn appraises the criteria ancient Egyptian doctors used to make their diagnoses in the context of current medical knowledge--showing that many of their findings are still valid today. He also explores ancient Egyptian spells and incantations and the relationship of magic and religion to medical practices. Incorporating recent insights of modern medicine and Egyptology, Nunn provides readers with a comprehensive and authoritative book on a fascinating subject.Binding Type: Paperback

BEST baby socks! Worth every penny!
They don’t fall off!!!! O M G! Seriously my little guy is Houdini when it comes to socks, we’ve tried ankle, thick, thin, this brand, that brand, and no matter what he kicks them off or I was constantly having to pull them back up his ankles.... not with these!!! I put them on in the morning and they don’t come off until I take them off in the evening at bath time! These Robeez socks will be the only socks I will ever buy again for my little ones!!!! Seriously hands down BEST baby socks!!!! Worth every penny!!! You won’t regret it!

Truly kick-proof socks, well worth the price!
These socks are fantastic. The only brand Ive found that are kick proof...they stay on my babys feet, no matter how active he is. They are nice quality, wash well and last over time. Two of the three pair I bought this time have an inner "toe liner" thay prevents their toes from getting snagged. Great design, but makes the sock's a little warmer than the unlined sock. The price tag appears high, but its well worth the cost. I bought the shark print (super cute!), 12 month size.

Good socks that *usually* stay on!
These do stay on my son's feet better than most other brands of socks but if he's really kicking (like in his car seat), they do still come off. He's 7 months and they fit OK. It seems they are sized a little small for 6-12mo. Other brands I have (Old Navy, for one) are just a tad larger so they'll fit him longer (even though he can pull those brands off more easily-just cannot win!). Otherwise they are made well and are good quality (which I was happy about considering the price!).

Amazing!
I found this brand a few years ago with my second baby and I’m back for more for my third. They do actually stay on all day! With the money and so cute.

Holy Grail of Baby Socks
Love, love, love these socks. As anyone who has ever been around a baby knows, their socks are always falling off! These are the only ones I've found to stay on so they are well worth the price as you aren't constantly losing them and having to buy more. I've already bought 2 sets and will probably buy one more and more again when he sizes up. Right now my son is 2 months old, wearing 6 month clothes, and they still fit him well.
