Averroes' Physics: A Turning Point in Medieval Natural Philosophy
Glasner, Ruth (Hebrew University)
Ruth Glasner presents an illuminating reappraisal of the role played by the 12th-century Andalusian Muslim polymath Averroes in the development of medieval science and philosophy. She reveals how Averroes pioneered a bold new atomistic physical theory, and shows that he deserves at last to be recognized as an original and sophisticated philosopher.
