Sanskrit And Modern Medical Vocabulary-Asoke Bagchi
| Dr.
Asoke Bagchi deserves ample credit for expressing the link between some
languages and their teutobic and post-teutonic variants of a much later date
in a precise but laconic language. He has attempted to relate philologically
the origin of certain medical terms. According to author, English
lexicogra-phers claim that the overwhelming ma-jority of medical terms
originate from Greek, a sizeable portion being derived from Latin, but he
feels that many of these terms which are supposed to have originated from
Greek or Latin in fact did so from Sanskrit. This indeed is an interesting
book to come from the pen of a Neurosurgeon. This book will be of interest to
historians, language ex¬perts as well as to all medical men in¬terested in
the history of man and of medical sciences. |
