A Text Book Of Agada Tantra Illustrated

Description

A Text Book Of Agada Tantra Illustrated I always wonder why the students find themselves in a state of uncertainty, lack of direction and approach at the time of examination as well as in clinical practice. I think there are two reasons for this. First and most important reason is not understanding the basic concept of the clinical problem. The second reason is lack of proper text books. This is a humble effort to generate such an interest towards practical knowledge in the treatment of the poisoning. The sole interest of the book is to provide the essential contents of toxicology for undergraduates.

Throughout the book care has been taken and the subject is presented in such a way that the fundamentals of the subject will be understood easily. An attempt has been made to explain right from, history till clinical condition including origin, types, etiopathogenesis etc. of poisoning. Practical perspectives towards the diagnosis, investigations and management according to Ayurveda and contemporary science are also elaborated.

Number of diagrams, flowcharts and illustrations have been included wherever required for better understanding of the subject. I have reviewed various text books and journals in presentation of the book. I am grateful to all those authors. Suggestions and criticism from readers will help me in improving this book in subsequent editions. I feel that my efforts are fruitful If this is found to be useful by medical students and others concerned with toxicological matters.

My vocabulary is insufficient to express the gratefulness to Dr. D. Veerendra Heggade, president of S.C.M.E.S At these moments I extend my deepest gratitude towards our respected secretary Prof. S. Prabhakar and beloved principal Dr. Prasanna. N. Rao without whose inspiration the work would not have been succeeded. I avail the opportunity to thank Prof.Dr. B. Srinivas Prasad and Prof. Dr. D. Lakshamanachari who showed the path and direction for a sincere work.
