Kumud S Nagral (Author) The Chaukhamba Ayurvijnan Studies
Synopsis

The science of Ayurved is considered an Upanga (subpart) of Atharva Veda when it was written in text form.  But 600 B.C. was the beginning of most creative period of this Ancient Indian Medicine as stated by Dr. P. Kutumbiah.  It was in this period that a galaxy of medical teachers and stalwarts like Atreya the physician and Sushrut the surgeon made it a leading science of healthcare in the world and sowed the seeds of scientific temper.  Keen observations, discussions, experiments, documentation and putting them into practice for the betterment of the human race was the order of those times and went on up to 200 A.D.  Though it gradually declined after that, so many concepts, postulations and remedies are relevant and useful in health care of today.  This book explains them in an inquisitive manner which can be appreciated by a modern practitioner.  It serves as a foundation material explained in an explicit way.  Every statement is supported with reference from classical text of Samhitas.  Clinical subjects are discussed more elaborately.  They are described in modern scientific perspective without losing the fabric of Ayurvedic concepts.  This is also useful for an ISM practitioner as a reference book.  Any medical person who wants to have a holistic picture of the science of Ayurved will welcome this book.
