    A critical editio princeps of the cuneiform pharmaceutical manual entitled Šammu šikinšu, presenting its text in transliterated and normalized formats. Two appendices deal with closely related texts on the arts and lore of ancient Mesopotamia's physicians and pharmacists. A third one gives a hand-copy by the author of one of the clay tablets that constitute the handbook's text.
