Ibn S¿n¿ (Avicenna) was the ultimate polymath of the century, a self-taught prodigy whose systematic mind defined world knowledge for over years. Born into the intellectual furnace of the Samanid Empire, his life became a brutal cycle of exile, imprisonment, and high-stakes service in chaotic Islamic courts. Forced to reconcile profound scholarship with political peril, he wrote his masterpieces while constantly on the run. This comprehensive biography details how Avicenna single-handedly unified science and philosophy. It analyzes the dual legacy of his monumental works: The Canon of Medicine, which dominated clinical practice from Baghdad to Bologna, and The Book of Healing, the philosophical system that corrected Aristotle and laid the conceptual foundation for Thomas Aquinas and Western Scholasticism. Discover the extraordinary life of the Prince of Physicians-a man who organized chaos and built the intellectual framework of the medieval world through the sheer force of his genius.
