title: [Kos and Knidos].
abstract: The authors review the evidence concerning the antagonism between Cos and Cnidus and the alleged differences between their medical theories. They conclude that, most probably, the theoretical differences were negligible and the antagonism limited to professional competition between two groups of physicians sharing a common medical paradigm.
