v1.c6.18

Girindranath Mukhopadhyaya's History of Indian medicine in three volumes (1922–1929; second edition 1974) presents much useful information, as does the recent *History of medicine in India (from antiquity to 1000 A.D.)*, edited by P.V. Sharma (1992). Gurupada Hāldār’s *Vṛddhatrayī* (1963), composed in Sanskrit and dealing mainly with the classical treatises and the authorities associated with them, has to be consulted with caution, due to the idiosyncratic views of the author.
