From dust jacket: "I am going to learn about medicine," Ali said as he left his Azerbaijan home. He had not always felt this way. He used to distrust Dr. Nicolayev, who was only an Uruss and a Christian. Ali was sure that Allah would not give this man knowledge and power denied a good Mohammedan; and besides, how could Christian potions cure one of the faithful? But now that his parents had died, when the Uruss doctor could have saved them, he himself wanted to be a doctor. How Ali tried to reach his goal, and what happened to him, is told in this exciting story, full of life and action.

From dust jacket: This simple declaration started a revolution in mathematics that is still going on seven and a half centuries later. Its author was Leonard Fibonacci, a citizen of thirteenth-century Pisa, one of the vanguard cities of the high Middle Ages. The daring of Pisan merchants and mariners had made their small walled town one of the great capitals of the commercial revolution. It was no coincidence that such a city produced Leonard, the foremost mathematician and one of the most brilliant men of the age. His remarkable book, the Liber Abaci, not only furnished a clear and comprehensive explanation of the new Hindu-Arabic numerals, but set forth with verve and style the first new concepts in Western mathematics since Euclid. This exciting book gives a vivid picture of the medieval world and the impact of Muslim civilization on Europe. Many examples, drawn from "Leonard's own work and that of his predecessors, challenge the reader as they dramatize the tremendous significance of his contributions.
