An Elementary Textbook of Ayurveda

Himself a medical doctor, Ninivaggi explains the fundamentals of traditional Indian health care, translating them into terms and concepts familiar to westerners with or without a medical background. History, theoretical foundations, anatomy, physiology, the health and diseases process, nutrition and diet, lifestyle and regiments, and therapies are among his topics. He includes an extensive glossary without indicating pronunciation, but no index. c. Book News Inc.
