This book is incredible. One of the most incredible things about it is it was not originally a book, but a series of close to 100 large wall paintings (full colour! )designed to decorate the walls of the medical school in Lhasa. The painting were copied several times and the copies became disseminated among neighbouring countries and so have survived the burning and looting that has taken place in Tibet. The book is a record of an art gallery of medical illustrations which detail every aspect of the traditional medicine of that time. They do this with a beauty which must be seen to be believed and with a sensitivity which captures the soul of medicine. The work was done as a votive offering by monks working in the sixteenth century. What a beautiful gift they left us!
