Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Development Of Midicine Constitutes A Branch Of Historical Studies Second To None In Utility And Interest. The Present Work Aims At Both General And Academic Readers Is A Semianl Contribution Highlighting The Evolution Of Medicine In One Of The Greatest Civilizations Of The World. The Author Divides The Development Of Indian Medicines Into Diverse Phases Dominated By The Sorcerers, Curers, And Finally, The Vaidyas I.E. The Doctors. These Phases Were Partly Overlapping And Partly Antagonistic. New Ideas Were Developoed From Within Or Introduced From Without And Adopted By Different Professionals While The Older Views Continued To Have Their Practitioners As Well As Clients. Thus, The Author Argues, The History Of Medicine In India Is Not Hemmed In By The Conventional Chronological Divisions And It Straddles The Canonical Boundaries Between The Ancient Regime And Recent Periods. The Work Has Used Ethnographical And Old Literay Data Profusely. It Opens Some Of The Black Boxes Of Indian History And Has Been Probably Successful In Introducing A Different Kinds Of Discipline, The Metahistory.

Download or read book Asceticism and Healing in Ancient India written by Kenneth G. Zysk and published by Motilal Banarsidass Publishe. This book was released on 1998 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rich Indian medical tradition is usually traced back to Sanskrit sources, the earliest of which cannot much antedate the common era. In this book Kenneth Zysk shows that Buddhist scriptures some centuries older than this contain abundant information about medical practice, and are our earliest evidence for a rational approach to medicine in India. He argues that Buddhism and the medical tradition were mutually supportive: that Buddhist monks and people associated with them contributed to the development of medicine, while their skills as physical as well as spiritual healers enhanced their reputation and popular support. Drawing on a wide range of textual, archaeological, and secondary sources, Zysk first presents an overview of the history of Indian Medicine in its religious context. He then examines primary literature from the Pali Buddhist Canon and from the Sanskrit treatises of Bhela, Caraka, and susruta. By close comparison of these two bodies of literature Zysk convincingly shows how the theories delineated in the medical classics actually became practice.
