Healers and Healing in Early Modern Italy is written by David Gentilcore and published by Manchester University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0719041996 (ISBN 10) and 9780719041990 (ISBN 13).

How did people of the past explain and deal with illness? This pioneering new book explores the wide range of healers and forms of healing in the southern half of the Italian peninsula that was the kingdom of Naples between 1600 and 1800. Drawing on numerous sources, the book uncovers religious and popular ideas about disease and its causation and cures--and uncovers new territory in the history of medicine.
