Among the numerous scientific works of Avicenna (980-1037), the magnificent Persian polihistor, the five-volume-long Kanun fi Tib / Canon of Medicine, written 1013-1021) is the most outstanding. The second and fifth volumes contain the names of herbs Avicenna used ever successfully to cure different conditions. His work was founded by both antique GreekRoman and Far-Eastern medicine. Avicenna represented the originally Galen's "contraria contrariis" medical principle as he described over 600 compound preparations. Many herbs listed in the Canon are still widely administered. He also invented water-vapour distillation. Avicenna applied beyond herbs also preparations containing animal or mineral materials and their combinations. The Canon was such an outstanding medical work that after Avicenna's death when it appeared in Western-Europe was in use until the 1600s and had more than 30 editions Kulcsszavak: Avicenna, Kánon, gyógynövények Keywords: Avicenna, Canon, medicinal plants Avicenna tanulmányai és a KánonAz iszlám aranykorának (X., XI. század) különös tehetségű polihisztora, a perzsa származású orvos, csillagász, matematikus, jogtudós és filozófus, Abu Ali al-Husayn ibn Abd Allah ibn Sina, Bukhara, közismertebb nevén Avicenna Afšanában (Kharmaiten Bokhara provincia) született 980-ban (Észak-Perzsia / ma Üzbegisztán) és elhunyt Hamadānban (ma Irán) 1037-ben. Szellemi képességeit illetően, korabeli leírások szerint már 10 éves korában fejből tudta a korán szövegét, 16 évesen pedig már gyakorolta a gyógyítás művészetét. Avicenna az iszlám kultúra kimagasló személyisége volt. Élete során Afshana, Bukhara, Gurgonj, Nissa, Baward, Tus, Chaggan, Samangan, Gorgan, Raly, Hamadan, Isfahan belső-ázsiai városokban működött, keresve a békét és stabilitást, ezért az arabok, és a törökök is ki akarták sajátítani maguknak [1][2][3][4][5]. Avicenna rendkívüli megfigyelőképességével és tudásszomjával új irányt mutatott a természettudományban. Avicenna több mint 100 tudományos művet írt. Nevéhez fűződik a vízgőzdesztilláló-készülék és a termométer feltalálása is [6].
