Focusing on the influential tenth or eleventh century group known as the Brethren of Purity, this book delves into their writings and philosophical impacts from figures like Pythagoras, Plato, and Aristotle. It explores the intersection of their ideas with Judaism and Christianity, offering a fresh perspective that challenges the common belief of their affiliation with the Ismaili branch of Islam. Ian Netton provides a comprehensive analysis that highlights the significance of the Brethren in the Arab intellectual tradition.
