About this ebook
A concise introductory guide. Can doubt deepen knowledge without becoming a permanent refuge? This original English introduction follows al-Ghazali through philosophical debate, the limits of demonstration, the fire-and-cotton causality dispute, spiritual practice, and the ethics of intellectual ambition. It separates his arguments from later myths about an end to science and makes disputed interpretations explicit. Includes eighteen short chapters, a critical introduction, glossary, annotated sources, and an invented clinic case. A critical guide, not a work by al-Ghazali.
