Produktbeschreibung
This book - from Garnet Publishing's series Great Books of Islamic Civilization - was written in the early 11th century by a physician who was also the author of a treatise on philosophy and was famous for his Arabic poetry. For a medieval work - as an introduction to medicine intended for students - Ibn Hindu's book is refreshingly meticulous in its analysis and is modern in its outlook. Ibn Hindu (d. 423/1032) discusses various disciplines that a medical student should have been familiar with, including a lengthy digression into philosophy and logic. He then deals with matters specifically medical, devoting separate sections to anatomy, diseases, pulse, and names of medicinal substances.

Autorenporträt
Aida Tibi was born in Tulkarm, Palestine and studied in Beirut before earning a BA (Hons) in Classical Arabic at the University of London (1968), a MA in Classical Arabic in 1970 from the same institution, and a DPhil in Oriental Studies from the University of Oxford (1975). Her doctoral thesis focussed on a 12th-century manuscript about famous women in early Islam, with the Arabic text published by al-Dar al-'arabiyya li'l-kitab (Libya/Tunisia) in 1978 under the title al-Hada'iq al-Ghanna' fi akhbar al-nisa'. She served as Lecturer in Arabic and Islamic History at the University of Tripoli, Libya, and is now living in Oxford with her husband, Dr Amin Tibi.
