Aly Mazaheri, La Civilisation des eaux cachées, 11. Kaykāvūs Ibn Iskandar b. Qābūs (ed. Ghulām Ḥusayn Yūsufī), Qābūsnāmah. (Tehran: Sherkat-e Enteshārāt-e ʿelmī va farhangī, 1993), 188. Completed in 1080 CE, the Qābūsnāmah postdates Karajī’s death by at most several decades. It is also worth noting that sections of Karajī’s work that treat surveying methods and instruments (some of them invented by Karajī) have been published in English. See Frans Bruin, “Surveying and surveying instruments, being chapters 26, 27, 28, 29, and 30 of the book On finding hidden water by Abū Bakr Muḥammad al-Karajī,” Bīrūnī Newsletter 31, Beirut, 1970. That Karajī’s work merits a more sustained inquiry is suggested, if by nothing else, by its nature as an engineering book written by a cutting-edge theoretician whose other surviving works are on mathematics.

Paul Lettinck, Aristotle’s Meteorology and its Reception in the Arab World, 29. Lettinck also notes how substantive advances in knowledge regarding the phenomena presented in the Meteorologica more often occurred within other traditions of the classical and Islamic learning, such as that of Ptolemy’s Optics which led to experimental research carried out by Ibn al-Haytham (c. 965–c. 1040 CE) and Kamāl al-Dīn al-Fārisī (1265–1318 CE) on the rainbow (ibid. 30).
