Treatise on the Art of Logic
مقالة في صناعة المنطق / מלות ההגיון
Small vocabulary of Aristotelian logic in fourteen chapters, in the tradition of al-Farabi, which tradition attributed to the young Maimonides and which was translated into Hebrew (*Millot ha-higgayon*), Latin and several modern languages. Herbert Davidson has argued that it is not his; other scholars maintain the attribution.
