Iranian philosopher and historian. Also known as Ibn Miskawayh. He first served as a librarian to the Buyid vizier Ibn al-Amid in Rey, and in 976 he became a close aide to Azd-ud-Daula in Baghdad, where he served as librarian. Later he served the Khwarezmian dynasty as a physician. He wrote works in Arabic on philosophy, theology, and history, including the historical work Tajārib al-Umam (The Experience of Peoples) and the philosophical and ethical work Tahdhib al-Akhlāq (The Book of Morals). The latter was later translated into Persian by Nasir al-Din Tusi.
