A book entitled 'Al-Wuslah Ilal-Habeeb fi Wasfil-Tayyibat wal-Teeb,
attributed to Ibn al Adeem. Edited by Durrieh al Khatib and Sulaima Mahjoub.
Published by the Institute for the History of Arabic Science, University of
Aleppo, Aleppo, Syria. Volume one was published in 1987 and volume two in
1988. In Arabic.
Volume one is a treatise on the History of Foods of the Arabs by Sulaima
Mahjoub, and volume two is the complete text of the edited book with
extensive indices by Durrieh al Khatib. The book lists approximately 550
recipes for foods and drinks.

The question is, does anyone know if these works have been translated into
English or if these works are being considered for translation? Since English
has replaced Latin as the language of Academia, I find it hard to believe
that such important works would be only available in Arabic.
Thanks in advance.
