An effective resource for the Ayurvedic student. However, if you are not an Ayurvedic student, beware.This might be good if you are going to pay a practitioner for PK and want an overview of what you are getting yourself into. Ayurveda is very complex and this guide will not help you do PK on your own without a qualified practitioner. For a practitioner/student myself, I was able to consider his insight while doing my home pancha karma.

5.0 out of 5 stars A GODSEND AND AREVELATION
Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2014
Verified Purchase
This book is a godsend for those with chronic and autoimmune diseases who have given up on mainstream medicine, and are trying to figure out how to heal pretty much on their own. Amazing that this 5,000 year old wisdom is so superior to what is being offered by modern medicine. Mostly you just hear about the cutesy spa and beauty treatments kind of ayurveda, to which i never paid much attention. What a revelation to learn about pancha karma and the very serious and effective side of ayurveda.

I have been a fan of Ayurveda for a few years and have read many books. However non of them explain the foundation and roots of Ayurveda quite like Dr. Sunhil does in this book! His background in western medicine helps compare the two practices and answers many of my questions. I highly recommend this book to those who would like to learn more about Ayurveda or just are starting their studies in becoming a practitioner.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Ideas - Hard to Practice in West or Modern Times
Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2016
Verified Purchase
An excellent book. It may, however, be hard to practice in the typical Western lifestyle/habits (for example, all fermented foods and leftovers are no-no. Air conditioning is bad, too, meaning drafts of cold, dry air.). But then one will have to pay the price in terms of poor health despite all of the wealth and luxuries.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Health
Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2005
On a trip to Paris, I picked up a magazine that contained an article by Dr. Joshi. It intriqued me. I followed the diet that he recommended for 21 days in the article and I felt amazingly better. So when I returned home from France, I decided to look up this Dr. Joshi and see what else he has written. Took the book to read on another trip and I was very impressed. His caring and non-critical nature comes through in his writing. He explains the Ayurvedic medical concepts thoroughly. He explains what doshas are and how to begin to accept yourself as the type of person that you are...all with distinct kindness and gentleness reflective of himself and his culture. He doesn't push or sell an agenda. He states facts. This would be a good book to read after something like Perfect Health by Chopra, because it reinforces and further explains principles in a slightly more clinical form. I liked the book very much and would not hesitate to recommend to the curious health addict.
