Arabic guide for pharmacists, from a time in which Jewish physicians and pharmacists worked alongside Muslim and Christian practioners. Minhāj al-dukkān (\'How to manage a pharmacy\'), by Abū ʾl-Munā al-Kūhīn al-ʿAṭṭār (fl. 1260) is the first attempt to explore the full spectrum of pharmacy in the medieval Arabic world: identification of the materia medica and methods of preparation; pharmacy's place within the sciences and particularly its relationship with medicine; the social position of the pharmacist and his role in the marketplace and the hospital; the economics of pharmacy; legal aspects of pharmacy; and the image of the pharmacist in literature and drama. The result is a full and nuanced picture of a section of society usually invisible.Sir Henry Wellcome Asian series (Brill Academic Publishers) ;v. 8.PharmacyEgyptCairoHistoryPharmacopoeiasEgyptCairoHistoryMedicine, ArabHistoryPharmacyHistory.PharmacopoeiasHistory.Medicine, ArabHistory.615/.116216Chipman Leigh1651087MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824253503321The world of pharmacy and pharmacists in Mamlūk Cairo4101993UNINA
