The Islamic Middle Ages -- Index. 330 $aThis book is the first of a three-volume set introducing the history of scientific thought (including social and human science). The area covered in this volume is ancient Mesopotamia, classical Antiquity and the Islamic Middle Ages. Combining general descriptions with extensive excerpts from original sources in English translation, it concentrates on ways of thinking and actual argumentation and not just on results and mistakes; questions of validity are primarily dealt with in the perspective of the time of the writing, not on that of the 21st century. The work is of great interest to historians of science and culture, students as well as seasoned workers ? but also for amateurs willing to invest the necessary serious efforts. 606 $aScience$xHistory 606 $aHistory 606 $aPhilosophy$xHistory 606 $aCulture$xStudy and teaching 606 $aHistory of Science 606 $aHistory 606 $aHistory of Philosophy 606 $aCultural Studies 615 0$aScience$xHistory. 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aPhilosophy$xHistory. 615 0$aCulture$xStudy and teaching. 615 14$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aHistory. 615 24$aHistory of Philosophy. 615 24$aCultural Studies. 676 $a509.3 700 $aHøyrup$b Jens$0390350 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910865282003321 996 $aFrom Hesiod to Saussure, From Hippocrates to Jevons: Volume I$94246139 997 $aUNINA
