Elite medical education in eleventh-century Baghdad was largely text driven. Complex scholarly and textual practices define the writings of Abū l-Faraǧ Ibn aṭ-Ṭayyib (d. 1043), chief physician at the main hospital in Baghdad. This critical edition of seven of his medical summaries for advanced students offers a new basis for understanding what Arabic medical education looked like at this time. A major historical and text-analytical introduction situates the edited and translated summaries among other medical genres and documents, and shows how these teaching documents would have been utilized both in the author’s lifetime and in subsequent centuries.
