Book Description
The Medical Formulary of Al-Samarqandi demonstrates the high development of pharmacology by the Arabs in the Middle Ages. It was far from a dark period in science for it was in this area, as well as in Arabic optics and chemistry, that experimental science first began to develop. This is shown by al-Samarqandi's work which describes many new drugs, chemical processes, and a more advanced pharmacological theory. No part of this work has ever before been brought to the notice of historians of medicine. For the first time, the authors give a complete translation of this Aqrâbōdhīn in order to present a complete picture of the pharmacological knowledge of the day. There is a comprehensive section of Notes and Comments with particular attention being drawn to the present-day usage of old Arabic drugs, the employment of the drugs in the much earlier al-Kindi Medical Formulary, and to the etymological discussion of Arabic plant names not studied in previous works on the subject. Finally there is a Glossary of Arabic-English terms and a selected Bibliography.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Medical Formulary: Being a Collection of Prescriptions, Derived From the Writings and Practice of Many of the Most Eminent Physicians in America and Europe; Together With the Usual Dietetic Preparations and Antidotes for Poisons The lamented decease of Dr. Samuel George Morton, since the appearance of the last edition, has rendered it necessary to place this work in other hands. During the lifetime of its author, Dr. Morton afforded a friendly revision of the first two editions, and after his death assumed the editorial charge of the seven succeeding editions. Being intimately acquainted with the author's views, he faithfully carried them out, by adding, from time to time, standard formulae from the best writers.
