In The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer oncologist Siddhartha Mukherjee describes the Greeks preoccupation with fluid mechanics, spurred by a “revolution” in irrigation and “culminating with Archaemedes discovering his eponymous laws in his bathtub.” “This preoccupation with hydraulics also flowed into Greek medicine and pathology.
