Ayurveda, Nation and Society : United Provinces, c. 18901950

Orient Blackswan Pvt Ltd

Ayurveda enjoys a growing global appeal, and is often touted as \u2018true\u2019 and \u2018time-tested\u2019 by contemporary political actors, governments, social groups, practitioners and NGOs in India. With \u2018indigenous\u2019 healing systems enjoying increasing state support today, an examination of the socio-political aspects of medicine, in particular Ayurveda, and its role in nation-building is critically important. Ayurveda, Nation and Society, the latest in Orient BlackSwan\u2019s \u2018New Perspectives in South Asian History\u2019 series, captures the late nineteenth and early twentieth century growth of \u2018medical nationalism\u2019 through the Ayurvedic revivalist movement in the United Provinces, and observes the ensuing change and continuity in the attitude towards \u2018indigenous\u2019 medicine in independent India.\n\nAyurveda, Nation and Society\nUnited Provinces, c. 1890\u20131950\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK ;
