The Western Caliphate produced physicians and philosophers almost as brilliant as those of the East.

Remarkable schools of medicine were founded at Seville, Toledo and Cordova.

The most famous of the professors were Averroes, Albucasis and Avenzoar.

Albucasis was "the Arabian restorer of surgery." Averroes, called in the Middle Ages "the Soul of Aristotle" or "the Commentator," is better known today among philosophers than physicians.
