Arabic and Persian medical books available online.

The Yale Library has made selected Arabic and Persian medical books available online.
The collection includes some unique Arabic and Persian medical materials, housed in the Medical Historical Library. Created by scholars from the past who adopted, translated and augmented Greek and Roman medical knowledge, this corpus of materials was transmitted to Western societies during the Renaissance.
