Hardcover. Condición: GOOD. SIGNED and inscribed by the author in Hebrew to fellow scholar of Islamic and Jewish philosophy, Joel Kraemer. 207pp. Sewn binding in yellow cloth. Edges a bit dingy, occasional pencil annotations by Kraemer, sound otherwise. 'Al-Kindi emerges as a philosopher who attempted to present, interpret, and supplement past philosophies as parts of an essentially unified tradition that would make for a viable philosophy in Islamic society. He assumes a place at or near the beginning of a philosophical current-based on transmission of studies from late Greek thought-that remained vital in the Islamic world for several centuries. Alfred L. Ivry presents a reevaluation of al-Kindi's relationships with the powerful group of theologians, Mu?tazilah. The commentary defines and interprets terms used by al-Kindi, identifies original Arabic and Greek sources, and analyzes the most recent critical research related to each allusion. Complete bibliography and index of Aristotelian sources.' (Publisher's blurb). Signed.
