"Summary of the work, by M. Plessner [translated into English by J.B. Trapp]": p. [lix]-lxxv.
According to the Encycl. of Islam (and following F. Sezgin), this work should be attributed to Maslamah ibn Aḥmad al-Majrīṭī's "quasi-temporary and compatriot Abū Maslama Muḥammad ... al-Mad̲j̲rīṭī ... and to the latter's pupil Ibn Bis̲h̲rūn al-Mad̲j̲rīṭī ...." See the article "al-Mad̲j̲rīṭī, Abu 'l-Ḳāsim Maslama b. Aḥmad al-Faraḍī" by J. Vernet. This opinion is not unanimous however..
Includes bibliographical references (pages [xvi]-xix) and indexes.
