Rhetoric of Diversity authored by Girija KP is a milestone in the
new critical scholarship on the history of medicine in India.
The book foregrounds the heterogeneous planes of
knowledge interaction between Ayurveda and other
knowledge systems and traces the evolution of Ayurveda as a
classical tradition along with the parallel growth of
nattuvaidyam, its indigenous counterpart. Nattuvaidyam (as
known in Malayalam) is a set of indigenous healing practices
clubbed together as a miscellaneous category.
