Description
'Asthma: An Interdisciplinary Perspective' offers a clear and comprehensive exploration of asthma and Tamaka Shwasa through an integrated lens of modern medicine and Ayurveda. Moving beyond treatment alone, the book covers the full spectrum of the disease—its causes, mechanisms, clinical features, diagnostic outlook, and overall management, drawing meaningful parallels between biomedical science and classical Ayurvedic understanding. It presents modern evidence on airway inflammation, immune pathways, and clinical assessment alongside Ayurvedic concepts of Dosha imbalance, Srotas involvement, and systemic influences. The management section highlights both contemporary therapies and holistic Ayurvedic strategies, including Shodhana, Shamana, diet and lifestyle measures, yoga, and pranayama, offering readers a balanced and practical approach. Designed for students, practitioners, and researchers, this book provides a concise yet insightful blend of tradition and science, supporting a deeper, more integrative understanding of respiratory health.
