Eating Drugs: Psychopharmaceutical Pluralism in India - Biopolitics
Stefan Ecks
A Hindu monk in Calcutta refuses to take his psychotropic medications. His psychiatrist explains that just as his body needs food, the drugs are nutrition for his starved mind. Does it matter how - or whether - patients understand their prescribed drugs? This book illuminates how biomedical, Ayurvedic, and homeopathic treatments are used in India.
