PDF 900 Jahre al-Gazali im Spiegel der islamischen Wissenschaften (Veroffentlichungen Des Zentrums Fur Interkulturelle Islamstu) (German Edition) by Frank Griffel in History

Description

Drawing one 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.
