<a name="p23item1"></a>Regimen for Travelers:</p>
<p class="indent"> Treatises for travelers were a very popular form of medical literature. <a href="bioI.html#jazzar">Ibn al-Jazz&#257;r</a> wrote one that was later quite influential in Europe in its Latin version <em>Viaticum peregrinantis</em>. All such manuals discussed the diseases, the fevers, and some bites of poisonous insects and animals that might be encountered when traveling and the means of treating them in the absence of a doctor.</p>
<p class="indent"> NLM represents this genre with a Persian treatise composed in Isfahan in 1728/1141.</p>
