Indian Medicine (Medicin), translated by C. G. Kashikar c2.2

c2.2

Two works which describe in great details the ideas contained in the principal Sanskrit treatises, chiefly those that relate to the pathology and nomenclature of the diseases have been consecrated to it; they are:— (1) *commentary on the Hindu System of Medicine* by Th. A. Wise (Calcutta, 1845) and (2) *Medicine* (in German) by J. Jolly, in the Encyclopaedia of Indo-Aryan Research of Buhler and Kielhorn. The first has to its credit two editions (1860 and 1900). The second deserves to-day, at the fiftieth anniversary of its publication (1901), an English translation which would secure for it a greater utilisation.
