Abstract

First paragraph: Peter Adamson’s Interpreting Avicenna is a collection of twelve essays, written by leading experts on the “Chief Master” of Arabic philosophy – al-Sheikh al-raʾīs. Far from being a loose collection of disjointed pieces, this volume stands out as a well-structured and comprehensive handbook on Avicenna. This in itself is a remarkable achievement, which alone would make the volume indispensable. Additionally, each and every essay is an outstanding piece of scholarship, which offers a state-of-the-art presentation of its subject as well as breaks new ground and advances our knowledge of Avicenna’s life, thought, and legacy.
