520			_aAl-Farabi and Aristotelian Syllogistics deals with an important chapter in the history of Aristotelian logic in early medieval Islam and offers a unique and comprehensive analysis of the writings of the outstanding Muslim philosopher Abu Nasr al-Farabi (d. 950/51).
520	8		_aThe first part focuses on a wide range of subjects relating to syllogistic theory proper; the second part deals with its application in the context of Islamic law and theology, and concludes with an in-depth analysis of the way in which Aristotelian logic came to be integrated into Muslim political thought.
520	8		_aThe sections on syllogistic theory proper are especially important for those interested in the theory of Arabic logic; the remaining sections are required reading for historians of Islamic law, theology, and Islamic political philosophy.
