Reviews
The excitement readers will feel in encountering this material, and the impact this anthology will make...will open the way for more work on Buddhist medicine, but more importantly it should also move us towards a more complex and complete view of Buddhism., C. Pierce Salguero's Buddhism and Medicine is an amazingly rich and comprehensive collection of studies of texts and observed practices from all over the Asian lands where Buddhism's manifestations made extensive contributions to the cultures. This book is a remarkable labor of scholarship and dedication-I cannot recommend it highly enough for anyone interested in Buddhism, the history of medicine, and the mutually fruitful interaction of the Asian medicine traditions and Western biomedical tradition that is happening all around us today., C. Pierce Salguero's Buddhism and Medicine is an amazingly rich and comprehensive collection of studies of texts and observed practices from all over the Asian lands where Buddhism's manifestations made extensive contributions to the cultures. This book is a remarkable labor of scholarship and dedication--I cannot recommend it highly enough for anyone interested in Buddhism, the history of medicine, and the mutually fruitful interaction of the Asian medicine traditions and Western biomedical tradition that is happening all around us today., This book manages to be both a major contribution to research scholarship and a wonderful textbook. Almost all the translations are presented here for the first time, making this compendium an important source for comparative studies and discovery in the history of medicine. . . . The book is beautifully edited, designed, and printed and is also available through university libraries as an ebook. This is a remarkably rich collection of materials for the history of medicine and of Buddhism. It will reward researchers and students for many decades to come., Buddhism and Medicine: An Anthology of Premodern Sources is a remarkable collection of translations of important primary sources related to the theory and practice of medicine and healing from across Buddhist Asia . . . This is an essential addition to the library of anyone working in Asian religions. The sources it presents are simply fascinating to read and far too important to be ignored., Even well-informed scholars will find new and unfamiliar things in this rich and varied collection, and students are likely to encounter many texts to engage their interest and stimulate further study. I recommend this book highly., This is a most unusual project. It will be a unique and valuable resource, both for students of Buddhism and for students of the history of medicine. There has never been anything like it in any language., A welcome addition to studies involving the healing traditions connected with Buddhism in South, Southeast, and East Asia. It will appeal to students of Buddhism, Asian medicine, and, importantly, the history of medicine.
