About this translation
This is a complete, chapter-by-chapter translation of a classical medical text, prepared for readers who want the original argument rather than a summary — students of the history of medicine, traditional practitioners, and anyone reading the source their field came from.
What is inside
Every chapter of the volume is translated in the author’s own order: the elements and temperaments, the humours, the faculties and pneuma, anatomy, the states of the body, the pulse and the urine, the six non-naturals, and regimen for children, the elderly and the traveller.
How this translation is made
The source text is translated sentence by sentence, with terminology kept consistent across the whole volume (temperament, humours, pneuma, faculties). Nothing is summarised, added or explained away — where the original lists treatment for a condition, the list is complete.
Who this ebook is for
Historians of science and medicine, Unani and integrative practitioners working from the classical sources, students comparing the Greco-Arabic and modern frameworks, and readers who want to understand how medicine became a systematic discipline.
