Mathematical instrumentation in fourteenth-century Egypt and Syria: the illustrated treatise of Najm al-Din al-Misri

An illustrated Arabic treatise, with an English translation and detailed commentary, on the construction of over 100 various astronomical instruments, many of which are otherwise unknown to specialists. It was composed by Najm al-Din al-Misri, a rather shadowy figure, in Cairo around 1330 CE.
