Book Synopsis Abraham Ibn Ezra and the Rise of Medieval Hebrew Science by : Shlomo Sela
Book excerpt: This book studies Abraham Ibn Ezra's (1089-1167) scientific thought. His life and oeuvre are viewed as the very embodiment of 'the rise of medieval Hebrew science', a process in which Jewish scholars gradually adopted the holy tongue as a vehicle to express scientific ideas.
