Explaining the basic therapeutic approaches of ancient Indian systems of medicine and how they are positioned vis-à-vis latest trends in modern medicine, the book focuses on diverse specialized areas of medicine aimed at human well-being: physical, psychological, emotional and social, and which, in turn, are essential for longer life expectancy and lower incidence of disability. The volume also highlights how Indian systems address all human health-related aspects of both the natural environment and the built environment, and how they suggest ways of combating the onset of deadly infectious diseases and epidemics: whether endemic or pandemic. The author, in sum, brings out the viewpoints — on human health and well-being — of Ayurveda, Indian Philosophical Schools, and also of modern medical science.
