About this book

Este livro, que faz parte da gigante herança intelectual deixada pela civilização árabe-islâmica, foi escrito no século XII do calendário cristão. Seu autor atribui caracteres e comportamentos, assemelhando o homem ao animal, para concluir que é fanfarrão aquele que possui testa enrugada, e que é briguento e implicante aquele cuja testa é plana e sem rugas, enquanto olhos saltados sinalizam ignorância e incoerência e se os olhos forem reentrantes, os mesmos sinalizam nobreza de alma. O autor baseia-se na medicina antiga e em conhecimentos adquiridos por diversas culturas antigas, para defender que é mulherengo e ocioso aquele que possui olhos tremulantes e perversos e que é ardiloso e mulherengo quem possui olhos pequenos e azuis. Atribui-se outros caracteres específicos às faixas etárias, ao gênero e às condições climáticas.
