Medieval Islamic Medicine and Medical Luminaries While Europe was passing through the Dark Ages, a vibrant Islamic civilization existed in the Middle East. Driven by the search for knowledge, scholars of different ethnicities and religious affiliations worked together to translate the available knowledge of the ancients (Greek, Roman, Indian, Persian, etc.) into Arabic, added to it their own experiences, preserved it in Arabic, and delivered it to Western civilization during the Renaissance. In one volume, Adel K. Afifi, MD, MS, and Ronald A. Bergman, PhD, professors emeriti, Carver College of Medicine, University of Iowa, provide a detailed yet compelling look at the status of medicine of the ancients; the pre, early and late phases of Islamic civilization; and the transfer of the accumulated knowledge to the fledgling Western civilizations. Medieval Islamic Medicine and Medical Luminaries will delight and fascinate health care professionals, historians, and casual readers of today's news, so much of which includes information from the Middle East.
