D., [the Kitab al-Tasrif] was the result of almost fifty years of medical education and experience. In it he discussed not only medicine and surgery, but also midwifery, pharmaceutical and cosmetic preparations, materia medica, cookery and dietetics, weights and measures, technical terminology, medical chemistry, therapeutics, and psychotherapy.

Per Hermannum Comitem a Neflenar, integro candori nuper restitutus autor. Strasbourg, Johannes Schott, 1532. Folio, title within five-piece woodcut border, woodcut initials in both parts, eight full-page woodcuts (one folded, having larger margins left by the binder), and numerous woodcuts in the text of Abulcasis (see below); small library stamp on verso of title, four marginal tears repaired, some worming towards the end; a pleasant copy, with striking endpapers, bound in eighteenth century German mottled sheep, large gilt arms of the Munich Court Library on covers, spine gilt in compartments. A very handsome edition of Abulcasis surgical text, “the first rational, complete and illustrated treatise on surgerY and surgical instruments” (Garrison-Morton). Many of the operative procedures and instruments described by Abulcasis do not appear in extant classical writings and may therefore be regarded as his own, or at least as being part of distinctly Arab practice. The work deals extensively with cauterization, a procedure recommended by the Prophet, and contains several chapters on dentistry and operations of the eve. gvnaecologv and the treatment of wounds and fractures. Some woodcuts illustrate many and various surgical and dental instruments and there are fullpage depictions of cauterization, amputation, the treannent of wounds from projectiles and trepanation. Illustrations to the chapter on dentistry are on pages 173177, including a woodcut of teeth strengthened with silver threads. The printer has also re-used the woodcut blocks by Johann Wechtlin for Gersdorfs Feidhuch dci Wundarizney, 1517. See Guerini, A History of Dentistry, i oq, pp. 125 et seq. fbi an extended discussion of Abulcasis dentistry and instruments. “The chief influence of Albucasis on the medical system of Europe was that his lucidity and method of presentation awakened a prepossession in favour of Arabic liter attire among the scholars of the West: the methods of Alburasis eclipsed those of Galen and maintained a dominant position in medical Europe for live hundred years Albucasis descriptions of operations are clear and particularly valuable because they portray the figures of surgical instruments used in the Middle Ages ... most of the figures of mediaeval times derived from those of Albucasis and incidentally show no knowledge of perspective” (Campbell, p. 88). First edition of Priscianus Euporzston (a go edition, printed by Froben in Basle in the same year was probably published later). Priscianus was a physician who flourished in the 4th century A.D. The first book deals with external ailments, including chapters on the ear, the nose and teeth; the second is on internal medicine and the third book, the Gynaecia, is one of the earliest monographs on obstetrics and gynaecology (see Ricci, The Genealogy of Gynaecology pp. 148149). The title-page is decorated by five woodcut strip ornaments, of which the two vertical ones are by Heinrich Vogtherr, and the three horizontal ones are by Hans Weiditz.
