A Compendium on the Soul
Avicenna and Edward Abbott Van Dyck
A thousand years ago the physician Avicenna set out to explain what a soul is and how it powers a living body. Six compact sections cover the faculties of plants, animals, and humans: nutrition, sensation, imagination, and reason in ascending order. A rare short work from one of history's most influential medical minds. Read the psychology lecture of another millennium.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
