      note = {"The Carrara Herbal is an exceptional illustrated book of  materia medica (therapeutic substances drawn from plants,  animals and minerals). It is exceptional in both its  illustrations and its content, making it of interest to  historians of art and medicine alike. The Herbal contains a  translation into Paduan dialect of a Latin version of the  mid-thirteenth-century Arabic pharmacopeia, Kitab al-Adwiya  al-mufrada (The Book of Simple Medicines), written by Ibn  Sarabi, a Christian physician working in al-Andalus and  known in the Latin West as Serapion the  Younger."--Introduction.},
