Cover Illustration:
Rheumatism has plagued the human race since the earliest civilizations.
The ancient Egyptians were, perhaps, the earliest civilization to learn
of the pain-relieving effects of potions made from myrtle or willow leaves.
Salicylic acid was the active ingredient in those ancient potions. Isis
was an Egyptian healer who prescribed these potions. This statuette of
Isis dates to the 1st century A.D., and is reproduced with permission
