-[[Dr.]] Moore is notable as the only embryologist directly quoted by [[Islam|Islamic]] sources in an attempt to prove [[embryology]] as described in the [[Qur'an]] is [[Islam and Science|scientifically]] correct. In the 1980s he accepted an invitation by the Embryology Committee of King Abdulaziz University to produce a special 3<sup>rd</sup> edition of his most successful [[books|book]] "The Developing Human" specifically for use by Muslim students in Islamic Universities. He was financially patronized by the Saudi royal family for the use of his name, and for no real additional work. The textbook he delivered to the Saudi Universities that commissioned the work is titled, "The Developing Human: Clinically Oriented Embryology with Islamic Additions."<ref> Keith L.
