Europeans dubbed him the "Prince of Physicians". His monumental medical encyclopedia, The Canon of Medicine (Al-Qanun fi al-Tibb), became the standard, undisputed medical textbook taught in medieval European universities like Paris, Bologna, and Oxford, remaining in active use until the mid-17th century.

A true polymath.
I like how in older times being a polyglot was the norm among intellectuals. The atmosphere they lived in, prompted the mastery in different fields.
Today in this gay ass world of institutionalised academia you're forced to specialise in one single domain and not look beyond it.
Newton, Aristotle, Da Vinci, Omar Khayyam and Rhazes all excelled in multiple fields. The autistic division between art and science didn't exist then, science is nature, nature is the natural system of this world - not something you see when you go into the woods. Within it is the art and the semantics of science. I like the unrestrained thinking about the world that the ancients had.

FUCKING YES. ANON DAMNNN YES
THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN ART AND SCIENCE IS THE WORST MOVE
im not a conspiracy theorist but liberal arts and post enlightenment era changed science.
earlier science and art were same.
i hate this modern scientific academic culture.
earlier the guy who talked about infinity also talked about society and implications of absurd scientific thoughts on society.
science included god.

I like that you get it anon...
Science is reduced to just cold numbers and figures and arts to just something which is pleasing to experience. It's stripping the essence of both. Modern academia is a bell curve which favours the dimwits because of their review process. Any attempt at including the arts into science is labelled as "pseudosoyentific."
We're dissecting everything in the name of science and forgetting the divinity of knowledge. That's why we see satanic ideas like transhumanism being popular.

sry i phrased it wrongly i meant in history the guys (polymaths) talked about infinity and science as well as scientific connection with society and art.
