Religion, Medicine and the Human Embryo in Tibet - Routledge Critical Studies in Buddhism
Garrett, Frances (University of Toronto, Canada)
This book explores the cultural history of embryology in Tibet, in culture, religion, art and literature. Filling a significant gap, this is the first in-depth exploration of Tibetan medical history in the English language. It examines embryological narratives in relation to turning points in Tibetan medical history, and its relationship with religious doctrine and practice.
