Contemporary Ayurveda claims ancestral origins. Many ancient Sanskrit texts have indeed come down to us, but what do they actually say? This book offers the first French-language anthology of classical texts, with introductions and commentary, to help you discover this traditional and learned Indian medicine.
The extracts, selected by Michel Angot from the great Ayurvedic treatises ( Caraka-samhita , Suśruta-samhita , Ashtanga-hridaya-samhita , etc.), provide answers to questions such as: What is health, what is illness? Who to treat, who not to treat? With what to treat and for what purpose?
