A fusion of alchemy, astrology, and medicine intertwined within one being – Philippus Theophrastis Aureolous Bombastas von Hohenheim became synonymous with innovation. Crabbs Historical Dictionary published in 1825 provides further insight into this Swiss Renaissance physician's vast repertoire – botany held no secrets for him either.
