About this deck
Three centuries when Baghdad, Cairo and Córdoba led the world: al-Khwarizmi and the birth of algebra, Ibn Sina's Canon, al-Zahrawi's surgery, the translation movement that saved Greek science.
Each card is one scholar, discovery or institution with the date and the why-it-mattered — history that answers back.
