Reviews
These wonderfully detailed ethnographic studies look at 'Tibetan Medicine' from the peripheries and the grass roots of Indian Himalayan regions. A diverse and populous amchi medicine is here revealed as plural, embedded in communities and in history, and much valued by sick and healthy people alike. This volume promises to completely recast and thoroughly pluralize Tibetan studies and Asian medical history., These wonderfully detailed ethnographic studies look at 'Tibetan Medicine' from the peripheries and the grassroots in Indian Himalayan regions.

A diverse and populous amchi medicine is here revealed as plural, embedded in communities and in history, and much valued by sick and healthy people alike. This volume promises to completely recast and thoroughly pluralize Tibet studies and Asian medical history., This volume on Tibetan Medicine in India produces a dual sense of the vastness of this medicine's past (indeed its origins in the subcontinent and spread through the Tibetan hinterland) and the specificity of its return journeys arriving with the Tibetan diaspora. Through a palimpsest of ethnographic work, we are reminded of these practitioners' capacious ability to read the external conditions of life in the most minute of bodily disfunctions and the political, historical, social, and fiscal stakes of this task in different Himalayan contexts. This unique and scholarly collection will be of use to any scholar of comparative medical systems in the Asian context for years to come.
