In this book, Janne Mattila provides the first comprehensive account of the ethics of these important philosophers. The book argues that even if neither of them wrote a major ethical work, their ethical writings form a coherent ethical system, especially when understood in the context of philosophical psychology, cosmology, and metaphysics. The resulting ethical theory is, moreover, not derivative of their classical predecessors in any simple way. The book will appeal to those with interest in Arabic/Islamic philosophy, Islamic intellectual history, classical philosophy, and the history of moral philosophy"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aIslamic philosophy, theology, and science$9lat 606 $aIslamic ethics$9lat$2NLI 606 $aIslamic philosophy$9lat$2NLI 615 7$aIslamic ethics. 615 7$aIslamic philosophy. 676 $a181.5 700 $aMattila$b Janne$01585999 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910799294603321 996 $aThe eudaimonist ethics of Al-Farabi and Avicenna$93871997 997 $aUNINA
