Avicenna (Arabic Thought & Culture) Book

This book presents a factual, pithy and engaging account of the philosophy of Avicenna, perhaps the best known medieval Muslim philosopher. L. E. Goodman, a well respected scholar of Arabic thought, sets Avicenna in the context of his often turbulent times and traces the roots and influences of Avicenna's ideas. The book details Avicenna's account of being as a synthesis between the seemingly irreconcilable extremes of Aristotelian eternalism and the creationism of monotheistic scripture. It examines Avicenna's distinctive theory of knowledge, his ideas on immortality and individuality, including the famous Floating Man argument, his contributions to logic, and his probing thoughts on rhetoric and poetics.Read More
