University Press of Southern Denmark Studies in Alternative Therapy 3: Communication
Book SynopsisThis volume combines a number of examinations of alternative therapies, in widely diverging contexts, under the title of communication. The contributions discuss the difficult question of communication or non-communication between East and West, or between the alternative and the established, in both therapeutic and scientific worlds. In addition, the discussion of the body, or of nature itself, as a communicating medium, in command of its own organising and healing resources, is breached. This third volume contains contributions from areas such as psychology, sociology, anthropology, medicine, and natural science. In 1995, the three year old International Network for Research on Alternative Therapies invited outstanding international researchers to present their work under the heading, Communication in and about Alternative Therapies. The most significant results of that seminar, held in Copenhagen, are published here.

University Press of Southern Denmark Studies in Alternative Therapy 4: Lifestyle &
Book SynopsisThe articles in this final volume fall into two main themes, lifestyle and medical paradigms. By using lifestyle as the point of departure for describing the use and users of alternative treatment, research moves beyond the traditional scientific research categories. Alternative treatments foremost function is thus perceived to be the creation of identity. The scientific theoretical concept of paradigm leads the discussion to differentiate between conventional and alternative treatment seen in relation to the basic science or knowledge behind them. How is it possible to characterise an eventual break with tradition? Finally, this volume of Studies presents several documents related to the termination of INRAT; an article concerning the methodological problems connected with the network''s research area, a series of abstracts on methodology submitted by network participants, and the organising committee''s final report on the research project to the Research Council of the Humanities in Denmark.

Jan van Baarle Mantra -- A4
Book SynopsisSince ancient times, the yogis of India know that not only the body is receptive to sound, but also that it is formed and sustained by vibratory frequencies (mantras). The simple mantras (from the Sanskrit ''manas'' meaning ''thought'' or ''conscience''; and ''tra'', ''what protects'') are phonemes, sound units, of the Sanskrit mantric alphabet. They are used at the highest levels of tantra and raja yoga and protect from the constant mental flow of thoughts, fears, apprehensions, illusions... Practised with assiduity, the intonation of mantras activates the psychic energies. This chart explains the use of the mantric alphabet and illustrates the zones of resonance for healing of the body and energetic dynamisation.

New India Publishing Agency Ethnomedicinal Plants Resource of Orissa Vol 01
Book SynopsisTraditional medicine and ethnobotanical research, particularly when the literature and field work data have been properly evaluated. India is one of the twelve mega biodiversity countries of the world having rich in vegetables with a wide variety of plants with medicinal value. In many countries, scientific investigations of medicinal plants have been initiated because of their contribution to healthcare. Herbal medicines have good values in treating many diseases including infectious diseases, hypertension, etc. That they can save lives of many particularly in the developing countries is undisputable. Even today many local and indigenous communities in the Asian countries meet their basic needs from the products they manufacture and sell based on their traditional knowledge. Herbal drugs obtained from plants are believed to be much safer, this has been proved in the treatment of various ailments. Rural communities, in particular scheduled caste tribes, depend on plant resources mainly herbal medicines, food, forage, construction of dwellings, making household implements, sleeping mats, and for fire and shade. Rural people not only depend on wild plants as sources of food, medicine, fodder and fuel, but have also developed methods of resource management, which may be fundamental to the conservation of some of the world's important habitats. The objective of this book is to popularize the ethno medicinal plants species used by the tribals in Kalahandi district of Orissa and the traditional medical practices of the local tribes. Such attempt will protect the traditional knowledge practices of indigenous peoples from disappearing of knowledge and helps in conservation of biological resources for sustainable use. jacketTable of Contents01. Introduction. 02. Ethnobotany in Orissa. 03. Ethnobotanical importance of Kalahandi. 04. Ethnomedicinal plants of Kalahandi. 05. Traditional knowledge practice on health cure by tribals of Kalahandi. 06 Conclusion

Amsterdam University Press Unani Medicine in the Making: Practices and
Book SynopsisUnani Medicine in the Making examines the institutions and practices of Unani medicine, the Graeco-Islamic healing practice based on the humoral theory attributed to Hippocrates and officially recognized as a system of medicine in India. Drawing on diverse materials, including Urdu sources, interviews with practitioners, and observations in clinics, the book explores what Unani medicine is today by attending to its multiplicity, scrutinizing apparent tensions between the understanding of Unani as a system of medicine and its multiple enactments as Islamic medicine, medical science, or alternative medicine. Ethnographic details provide vivid descriptions of the current practice of Unani in India, and invite readers to rethink the idea that humoral medicine is incommensurable with modern medicine and science, and that the modernization of Asian medicines invariably leads to their biomedicalization. Ultimately, the book also discusses the relationship of Unani with Muslim communities, examining the growing practice of Prophetic Medicine in Urban India and increasing representations of Unani as Islamic Medicine.Table of ContentsINTRODUCTION MULTIPLICITY, PRACTICE ONTOLOGY, AND LOOPING EFFECTS UNANI AND TRADITIONAL MEDICINE IN SOUTH ASIA FROM THE TOPIC TO FIELDWORK CHAPTER 1 - A SYSTEM OF MEDICINE?
