Avicenna, or Ibn Sina, the tenth-century, Persian scientist-philosopher is beyond doubt the most provocative figure in the history of thought. With a wideness of range, a vigour of thought, and a unity of conception unequalled among the philosophizes, his thoughts extended far beyond the Eastern lands, giving rise to most complete philosophical system that the Islamic world was to have. Though the system owed much to his predecessors whether Greek, Hellenistic or Muslim, he gave to his successors in the East as well as in the West far more than he had ever received. Avicenna combined philosophy and edicene with such marked distinction, building an intellectual edifice.
