These two disciplines appear to be vital to come to understand Tibetan medical knowledge and practice as being complex, diverse and dynamic phenomena which reflect changing social and historical conditions at the same time while also appealing to or preserving an older canon of traditions. Part One examines the impacts of various modernities in Tibet, the Himalayan borderlands and the Tibetan exile, including standardisation and scientization of Tibetan medicine. Part Two investigates the transmission and professionalisation of medical knowledge and its role in identity construction. Part Three traces connections between various body images, practices, and cosmologies in Tibetan societies and how mental and physical illnesses are understood. Part Four critically presents new or little known histories, commentarial practices, textual narratives and oral sources for investigating the history of Tibetan medicine. 410 0$aBrill's Tibetan studies library ;$vv. 10/10. 606 $aMedicine, Tibetan$vCongresses 606 $aMedical anthropology$vCongresses 606 $aMedicine, Tibetan$xHistory$vCongresses 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMedicine, Tibetan 615 0$aMedical anthropology 615 0$aMedicine, Tibetan$xHistory 676 $a610 701 $aSchrempf$b Mona$0930022 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453561703321 996 $aSoundings in Tibetan medicine$92091331 997 $aUNINA
