I am working on setting up Drupal on my own site, since a blog is not ideal for publishing a book. I also need to find a clever way of maintaining the pages.<div style='clear:both; text-align:LEFT'><a href='http://picasa.google.com/blogger/' target='ext'><img src='http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif' alt='Posted by Picasa' style='border: 0px none ; padding: 0px; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial;' align='middle' border='0' /></a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6405661627199485991-5851446714489951714?l=16thcenturymedicalbook.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>MadsRGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04020597406665723737noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6405661627199485991.post-73259807728073614162010-04-29T13:19:00.000+02:002010-04-29T13:29:08.324+02:00I purchased a 16th century medical book on auction not so long ago. This era in time has always fascinated me. It is fantastic to read the lectures from more than 400 years ago, how diseases were understood, described and treated. I want to share this information with anyone who might have the same interest. My ambition is to scan all pages of the book and translate them into readable modern danish, and afterwards into english. Please write me if you want to help with the translation. There are almost 300 pages, so it will take some time just to scan the pages. And it takes a little while to get used to the gothic letters. Welcome to my new blog :)<div><br /></div><div>Mads R.
