The Complete Book of the Medical Art (Arabic: كامل الصناعة الطبية, Kitāb Kāmil al-Ṣināʻa al-Ṭibbīya), also known as The Royal Book (Arabic: الكتاب الملكي, Al-Kitāb al-Malakī), was written by Iranian physician 'Ali ibn al-'Abbas al-Majusi during the 10th century. He dedicated the book to king 'Adud al-Dawla, whom he was serving at the time. This book was considered one of the most necessary texts for medical students of that era, and the importance of his book was mentioned several times in views of different medicine historians, such as Lucien Leclerc and Arturo Castiglioni.
