Pharmacy Education in Italy

Dear readers, This time I would like to write up on an interesting topic which was reported by the famous, Roger Highfield. In his one of articles he was saying that monkeys were the first doctors and pharmacists! Evidence has emerged that humans learned the medicinal properties of soil and plants from fellow primates.

When we look back at the history of medicine, we think of the clever people who have, over thousands of years, devised the methods to reduce the human suffering. But to find the real fathers of the healing arts, we should look millions of years further back - to our hairy relatives i.e the apes.
