About This Book

Life and achievements of the surgeon and merchant Caspar Schamberger whose activities in Japan (1649-51) mark the beginning of a lasting Japanese interest in Western medicine that gradually led to the upcoming of the so called Dutch Studies (rangaku) in premodern Japan. This is the first publication giving Schamberger's biography together with a detailed account of this stay in Japan.
