F science. Roger Bacon (1214-1294) had long before said a similar thing:
"Michael Scot claimed the merit of numerous translations. But it is
certain that a Jew labored at them more than he did. And so with the
rest." In what precedes, nothing has been said of the _original_
contributions made by Jewish authors to scientific literature. Jews were
active in original research especially in astronomy, medicine, and
mathematics. Many Jewish writers famous as philosophers, Talmudists, or
poets, were also men of science. There are numerous Jewish works on the
calendar, on astronomical instruments and tables, on mathematics, on
medicine, and natural history. Some of their writers share the medieval
belief in astrology and magic. But it is noteworthy that Abraham Ibn
Ezra doubted the common belief in demons, while Maimonides described
astrology as "that error called a science." These subjects, however, are
too technical for fuller treatment in the present book. More will be
found in the works cited below. BIBLIOGRAPHY IBN TIBBON FAMILY.
