NLM has a copy.</p>
<p class="indent">Only two other copies are recorded, one in Tehran and one in Los Angeles. The date of completion is given only in the copy in Los Angeles, University of California at Los Angeles, Biomedical Library, Coll. 1062, MS Ar. 36 (see <a href="abbreviation.html#iskandarU">Iskandar "UCLA"</a>, p. 41). There is a Persian treatise preserved today titled <em>al-Dast&#363;r al-Jal&#257;l&#299;</em> by the same author, presumably a translation of the original Arabic. However, a second Persian treatise on the preservation of health in the human body (<em>Hifz-i sihhat-i badan al-insaniyah</em>) by the same author is said to have been dedicated to the ruler Abu al-Muzaffar Abu al-Mansur Shah Sulayman al-Safawi al-Musawi Bahadur Khan, who ruled from 1666 to 1694. (See <a href="glossary.html#storey2">Storey PL II,2</a>, p. 263-4 no. 450). The 17th-century date conflicts with that found in the UCLA copy of the present Arabic treatise. No further information is available on the author.</p>
