Publisher: Brigham Young University, 2014

On Rules Regarding the Practical Part of the Medical Art had been labeled a copy of On Asthma by bio-bibliographer Moritz Steinchneider, but a closer examination of the manuscript by Gerrit Bos and Tzvi Langermann has revealed the treatise to be a previously unrecognized work of the great philosopher-physician Moses Maimonides. The publication of this translation marks the first time the Arabic manuscript with English translation has been available to a modern audience in any form. It is in Maimonides' favored aphoristic format and contains some unique advice on serious abdominal wounds, which is most likely a reflection on Maimonides' own experience with battlefield casualties.

Product Description:

"On Rules Regarding the Practical Part of the Medical Art "was lost to scholars for centuries before it was discovered in the Biblioteca Nacional de Espana by the great bio-bibliographer Moritz Steinschneider, who initially thought it was simply another copy of "On Asthma." The publication of this new translation marks the first time the Arabic manuscript and Gerrit Bos's English version have been available to a modern audience in any form. It is in Maimonides's favored aphoristic format and contains some unique advice on serious abdominal wounds, which is most likely a reflection on Maimonides's own experience with battlefield casualties.

About the Author:

Gerrit Bos is chair of the Martin Buber Institute for Jewish Studies at the University of Cologne. Y. Tzvi Langermann teaches in the Department of Arabic at Bar-Ilan University in Ramat Gan, Israel.
