Hi Jim,
that is a very good choice!
A few suggestions:
In English there's
Roman Medicine (Revealing History (Paperback)) by Audrey Cruse (2004), but I haven't read that yet. For contemporary knowledge look e.g. for
Celsus - De Medicina. Tranl. by W.G. Spencer. Loeb Classical Library.
Also interesting is
The Roman Military medical Service. in Service in the Roman Army. Roy W. Davies. Edinburgh 1989
In German:
Antike Heilkunst. Ausgewählte Texte. Jutta Kollesch (Ed.) Reclam 9305
Der Arzt im Altertum. Walter Müri. München 1943
Heilkunst und Heilkult - Medizin in der Antike. Antje Krug. München 1993
Medizin in der Antike. Ernst Künzl. Stuttgart 2002
A German online version of Dioscurides' Materia Medica can be found at
http://www.tiscalinet.ch/materiamedica/
Let me know if you are looking for something special, there's lots of articles out there.
cheers,
Martin
