The Encyclopaedia of Indian Medicine presents details from core texts in Sanskrit, Hindi, Kannada, Telugu and Tamil, culled from forgotten and little known manuscripts and journals. It thus includes traditional details, the spirit and outlook of original texts other authors would miss. The six volumes thus present a comprehensive and factual knowledge of Indian medicine for the modern mind.
