Who Wrote the Earliest Book of Ayurveda on Paediatrics? Need Info for My Research - #1465
I’m currently working on a project about the history of Ayurveda and its application in child health. I’ve been reading a lot of modern Ayurvedic resources, but I keep coming across references to ancient texts that mention paediatrics. From what I understand, there was an early Ayurvedic book specifically focused on children's health, but I can’t find a clear answer on who wrote it. Is there a well-known author behind the first Ayurveda book dealing with paediatrics? I’ve seen names like Charaka and Sushruta in other contexts, but I’m not sure who’s credited with writing the first paediatric-focused text.
