„The Alternative of the Arab Intellectual Heritage to the Stalemate of Western Civilisation” (in English). Publisher: University of Latvia Press, Riga, 2014, ISBN 978-9984-45-885-4. [The ancient Arab science studied the human being as an indivisible whole, while the Western science has taken him to pieces in order to study each piece separately and, as a result, this view of the world has created fundamental problems. In Europe the knowledge of medicine and biology necessary for humans did not gain support on the part of the official holders of power and the church for hundreds of years. Since the very beginning they were forced underground as “secret”, “magic” or “heretical”.]
