Surprisingly modern essays on the unity of all monotheistic regimens by a medieval philosopher Written in the mid†‘thirteenth century for the newly appointed governor of Isfahan, this compact treatise and philosophical guidebook includes a wide†‘ranging and accessible set of essays on ethics, psychology, political philosophy, and the unity of God.
