"I present a detailed and analytical study of Jabir's corpus, first by classifying his books and treatises into specific categories based on how Jabir himself indexed his books and based on how Ibn al-Nadim classified the books of Jabir. ...This book covers Jabir's corpus and topics with details by analyzing the original writings of Jabir including many of his manuscripts that are not published yet." -Mashhad Al-Allaf (Preface)
