Arabian Drugs in Early Medieval
Mediterranean Medicine
Edinburgh Studies in Classical Islamic History and Culture
Series Editor: Carole Hillenbrand
A particular feature of medieval Islamic civilisation was its wide horizons. In this
respect it differed profoundly from medieval Europe, which from the point of view
of geography, ethnicity and population was much smaller and narrower in its scope
and in its mindset. The Muslims fell heir not only to the Graeco-Roman world
of the Mediterranean, but also to that of the ancient Near East, to the empires
of Assyria, Babylon and the Persians – and beyond that, they were in frequent
contact with India and China to the east and with black Africa to the south. This
intellectual openness can be sensed in many interrelated fields of Muslim thought:
philosophy and theology, medicine and pharmacology, algebra and geometry,
astronomy and astrology, geography and the literature of marvels, ethnology and
sociology. It also impacted powerfully on trade and on the networks that made it
possible. Books in this series reflect this openness and cover a wide range of topics,
periods and geographical areas.
