Tibetans have long held medicine to be a main pillar of their sciences, but non-Tibetan scholars of Tibet have not shared the perspective. The seminar was called to begin the process of aligning Western scholarship more closely with the object of its study. The 19 papers cover Tibetan medicine and modernity; transmission, professionalization, and issues of identity; bodies, spirits, and illnesses; and the history of Tibetan medicine. As readers have come to expect with Brill publications, the volume represents a considerable investment not only in valuable scholarship, but also in a quality and durable vehicle with the potential to carry that knowledge many decades into the future.
