Reviews

These two volumes are part of an exemplary ongoing series, directed by Gerrit Bos, of editions and translations of the medical works of probably the most thoroughly studied (and generally well known) medieval Jew: Maimonides (1138-1204), aka Moses ben Maimun or Abu 'Imran Musa ibn 'Ubayd Allah ibn Maymun... All of this gives ample reason for gratitude to Bos and his collaborators for seeing this extended project through with such meticulous scholarship. - Maud Kozodoy, in: Speculum 96 (April 2021)
