Excellent Overview,
By Trinetra (Ireland) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ayurveda, Nature's Medicine (Paperback)
An excellent overview of all the main areas of Ayurveda. Easy to understand and well explained. Useful as an introductary text for those with a limited knowledge of Ayurveda and as quick reference for those with more advanced knowledge.
Occasional typo's most of which are fairly obvious, the most significant being the deletion of limb 5 from the table spanning pg 265-266 summarizing Patanjali's Classical eightfold system of yoga. A book I enjoyed reading cover to cover and one I would recommend without hesitation inspite of the error noted above.
