Philosophy and Medicine in the Formative Period of Islam: Volume 31 (Warburg Institute Colloquia) - Softcover
Synopsis
Many of the leading philosophers in the Islamic world were doctors, yielding extensive links between philosophy and medicine. The twelve papers in this volume explore these links, focusing on the classical or formative period (up to the eleventh century AD). They also explore the Arabic reception of Greek figures who worked on medicine or medical topics, including Hippocrates, Aristotle and Galen. Attention is also given to the connections between medicine and Islamic theology (kalām), making this volume a useful springboard for further research.

Review
Philosophy and Medicine in the Formative Period of Islam exhibits careful textual and historical scholarship at its best and successfully shows that the reception of Galen in early Islamic intellectual history was more complicated than we sometimes suppose. * Isis Review *
