Viero). FIRST EDITION. Rhazes, a Persian philosopher and physician, was one of the most important writers on medicine in the medieval Islamic world and ranks with Hippocrates and Galen as one of the founders of clinical medicine. A follower of Galen, whose works he knew in Arabic translation, Rhazes did not hesitate to express doubts concerning traditional teachings when these were contradicted by his own observations. His Liber Almansoris , named after the ruler to whom it was addressed became a popular textbook. Divided into ten books, it covers physiology, dietetics, rules of health, surgery, poisons, pathology and fevers. "Although he was an important clinician, Rhazes' great contribution to medicine was as an encyclopedist. His compilations included extensive information from diverse sources and provided original clinical histories and the results of therapeutic experiments" (Grolier Medicine ).
