Summary: | "Dravayagunavigyana is the branch of Ayurveda which deals with the properties and actions of medicinal substances including their identification, characteristics and various usages. Even though it is not included among the 8 major branches of Ayurveda, it is of great importance in clinical practice owing to the fact that it is one among the four limbs of treatment along with the physician, attendant and patient ... The core objective of this work comprises critical study on various aspects of these basic and fundamental concepts of Dravyaguna so as to reappraise their importance and establish their rationality on scientific lines ... Apart from critical appraisal, attempts have also been done by the investigators to present the subject in the light of present day advancements in science..." -- Preface. |
