This fourth volume of the critical edition of the medical aphorisms
compiled by Maimonides (1138-1204) covers treatises sixteen to
twenty-one. The central subjects of these treatises include women's
diseases, physical exercise, bathing, foods, and the consumption of
drugs. Most of the aphorisms featured in this volume are based on
the works of Galen, but Maimonides also quotes from other ancient
and medieval physicians, including some whose work does not survive
in any other source. This edition provides both the Arabic text and
an authoritative English translation by Gerrit Bos in
parallel-column format.
