Accounts of the Unani Medical Literature Produced from 13th Century to 16th century

Ashfaque Ahmad

Abstract: The Unani system of Medicine has a huge reservoir of literature composed by the various authors, and many of them require regular books because of their glorious and distinguished works. For some authors, not a massive book but huge volumes of books will be required and to wind up their works and introducing them will not be an easy task for a researcher. It was taken as an Intra-Mural Research (IMR) project from Central Council for Research in Ayurvedic Sciences (CCRAS), Ministry of AYUSH, Govt. of India to compile the history of literature produced from 13th to 16th century AD. This work was carried out at National Institute of Indian Medical Heritage (NIIMH), Hyderabad, a peripheral institute of CCRAS. NIIMH has the mandate to work and preserve the heritage of all medical sciences.
