Notes
"He is the chief judge of Andalusia, the most famous Islamic philosopher of all time, and the greatest explainer of Aristotle's philosophy in the world. The people of his time exiled him and banned his books because he worked with philosophy. Europeans built their philosophy on the basis of his philosophical explanations in the Middle Ages. His name was as well-known among them as Aristotle. This book contains a lengthy translation of him, quoting from Arab and Frankish historians, and a statement of his writings and the way he explained Aristotle, extending his philosophy and attributing it to Aristotle's philosophy. Its history among the Jews and in Europe, and the interest of Saint Thomas, the greatest sage of the Western Church, in responding to it and the history of the modern philosophy that replaced it.”--Title page..
