One of the traditional medical systems originating on the Indian subcontinent, Ayurveda is fast becoming a transnational phenomenon. Contributors to this volume include both scholars and practitioners of Ayurveda. The wide range of perspectives they offer include the philosophical, anthropological, sociopolitical, economic, biomedical, and pharmacological. Issues such as the ideological clashes between \"classical\" and \"modernized\" Ayurveda, the \"export\" of Ayurvedic medical lore to Western countries, and the possible \"reimport\" of its adapted and reinterpreted contents are covered and prove particularly relevant to contemporary discussion on the integration of complementary and alternative health care.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dagmar Wujastyk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0791474895\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780791474891\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e State University of New York Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/10\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 363\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Dagmar Wujastyk","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48241097539839,"sku":"9780791474891","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dc63d422-3446-433e-aed9-8b4700332141.jpg?v=1772652703","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/modern-and-global-ayurveda-dagmar-wujastyk-9780791474891","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
