Avicenna’s Views and Modern Medicine: Revisiting Translation and Bridging the Gaps

£5.00

 

 

Given the limited literature covering these facets, including rapidly evolving health sciences and their correlation with Avicenna’s views, this book uniquely bridges traditional and modern medicine by exploring Avicenna’s wisdom alongside multimodal treatment and healing approaches. It covers neuropathies, flatulence, frequency-based dietary concepts (portion diet), humorism, and multiple treatment models, offering novel connections between traditional medicine philosophy and current medical sciences. Designed as a first-of-its-kind resource, it will appeal to a wide range of audiences, including herbalists, dieticians, natural product chemists, pharmacists, biochemists, geneticists, food chemists, medical students, researchers, and clinicians.

In concise form, the book compactly combines information on essential elements for optimal health—fasting, exercise, psychological and behavioral concepts, environmental health, and dietary patterns—into a brief practical guide.

Description

This concise mini-book reexamines Avicenna’s practical insights and relates them to modern medical sciences. It highlights his observations on bloating and flatulence, his frequency (portion) diet concept for the elderly, and his explanations of neuropathies, temperament, and disease causes of illness. Avicenna’s tailored food recommendations for lean versus obese elders, his ideas on “warming” drugs and types of bodily fluids, including phlegm types, and his insights on overcoming fear of death are all covered in this book.

This book focuses on the important questions, including:

  • What factors empower body energy?
  • What distinguishes a symptom from a disease cause, and how does Avicenna define medicine and health?
  • How can frequency (portion) diets benefit geriatric health?
  • Why should diets differ for lean and obese people, particularly for the elderly?
  • What causes bloating or flatulence in Avicenna’s views and modern sciences?
  • How do Avicenna’s temperament and humoralism concepts map to modern medical sciences, including genomics?
  • Why does the overlap between conventional and modern medicine need reinterpretation?
  • How can Avicenna’s philosophy help to reduce the fear of death?
  • How does Avicenna’s wisdom correlate with modern emerging sciences, including genomics and glycobiology concepts?

The author integrates concepts and shares simple, practical insights, tools, personal experiences, and demonstrative ideas to elaborate on personalized health improvement through Avicenna’s philosophy and contemporary science.
