Excerpt from The Improvement of Human Reason, Exhibited in the Life of Hayy Ibn Yakzan: Written in Arabic Above 600 Years Ago Now, my Dear Friend, I do not here, when I speak of the Ideas of the Contemplative, mean what they learn from the study of Physics; nor by the notions of those who have attained to the union, what they learn from the study of Metaphysics (for these two ways of learning are vastly different, and must by no means be confounded). But what I mean by the Ideas of the Contemplative is what is attained by the study of Meta physics of which kind is that which Ibn Baja understood; and in the apprehension of these things this condition is necessarily required, viz. That it be manifestly and clearly true and then there is a middle sort of speculation, between that, and those who have attained to the union.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Arabic philosopher and polymath Ibn Tufail explains human learning through fictional biography; in doing so, he demonstrates how humans can progress in the sciences and in reasoning. Hayy ibn Yaqzan (also rendered as Hai Ebn Yokdhan) is a young boy growing up in the wilderness. Learning survival skills while still small, he learns to thrive in his environment by mimicking the behaviors, actions and traits of animals - with repeated practice, he learns how to cook, craft, and make clothing. By observing the heavens, he arrives at great astronomical knowledge, while his experiences eventually hone a mind brimming with scientific and philosophic inquiry. At the conclusion of Yaqzan's biography, he is a mature man in his late forties who has enjoyed human contact for some nineteen years. After overcoming the surprise of not being the only human in existence, he vows to teach others the unique knowledge which he acquired independently. The final stage of his quest; sharing and passing on his distinctive learning to others, is triumphantly fulfilled. This translation of Ibn Tufail's superb text was performed by Simon Ockley, a 17th century academic who specialized in the study of near-Eastern scholars. Celebrated as a gem of Arabic philosophy and wisdom, The Improvement of Human Reason remains a lesser-known but highly appreciated text in the history of Middle Eastern thought.
