His immense impact on Christian and Jewish medieval thought, as well as on the subsequent Islamic tradition, is charted in this volume alongside studies which provide a comprehensive introduction to and analysis of his philosophy. Contributions from leading scholars address a wide range of topics including Avicenna's life and works, conception of philosophy and achievement in logic and medicine. His ideas in the main areas of philosophy, such as epistemology, philosophy of religion and physics, are also analyzed. While serving as a general introduction to Avicenna's thought, this collection of critical essays also represents the cutting edge of scholarship on this most influential philosopher of the medieval era. 606 $aMuslim philosophers$vBiography$vEarly works to 1800 615 0$aMuslim philosophers 676 $a181/.5 686 $aPHI009000$2bisacsh 701 $aAdamson$b Peter$f1972-$0629702 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910827165103321 996 $aInterpreting Avicenna$94197668 997 $aUNINA
