This volume charts important social and political transitions in Nepal through the lens of medicine. It engages with a range of issues - mission health care institutions, tuberculosis as a sight of ethnographic inquiry and medical intervention, the pharmaceuticalisation of mental health and public health, development ideologies and the attempted creation of modern subjects and citizens to advance the health of the nation.
