It is important that young and bright students should be properly trained and exposed to the strengths and weaknesses of methodologies adopted by both the sciences. A comprehensive textbook of research methodology for Ayurveda students was much needed. In my opinion, this book by Professor Wele can help students to be more open, inquisitive, methodical and confident. A harmonious flow of ancient and modern concepts, similarities and dissimilarities in epistemology, historical perspective, and relevant explanations with real and hypothetical case studies is the strength of this book. It is written by adopting a very contemporary style giving chapter outline, summary and practice exercises. It covers not only basic research designs but also covers literature search methods and publishing research. By and large, it covers the syllabus of Research Methodology prescribed in BAMS.
