DESCRIPTION
Although the fundamental aspects of the medicine in the Vedas are contained in the present monograph, their remains several points requiring further exploration. One important part of this heading Tradition, only briefly mentioned in this work is vedic toxicology. Several hymns of the Atharvaveda and few of the Rgveda concern them selves poisioning usually caused by the animals and with the remedial measures to cure it. It is almost certain that India's long and renowned tradition of toxicology drives from a basic knowledge of poisons and poisonous animals found in the Vedas.
