The tenth or eleventh century group of the Brethren of Purity
(Ikhwan al Safa) are as well known in the Arab world as Darwin,
Marx and Freud in the west. Designed as an introduction to their
ideas, this book concentrates on the Brethren's writings, analyzing
the impact on them of thinkers such as Pythagoras, Plato, Aristotle
and the Neoplatonists. Ian Netton traces the influences of Judaism
and Christianity, and controversially this book argues that the
Brethren of Purity did not belong to the Ismaili branch of Islam as
is generally believed.
