Asian Medicine
Journal of the International Association for the Study of Traditional Asian Medicine
Editor-in-Chief:
Pierce Salguero
Asian Medicine: Journal of the International Association for the Study of Traditional Asian Medicine is a multidisciplinary journal aimed at researchers and practitioners of Asian medicine worldwide. It makes available in a single publication academic essays that explore the historical, anthropological, sociological, and philological dimensions of Asian medicine, as well as practice reports from clinicians based in and outside Asia. With the recent upsurge of interest in non-Western alternative approaches to health care, Asian Medicine will be of relevance to those studying the modifications and adaptations of traditional medical systems on their journey to non-Asian settings. It will also be relevant to those who wish to learn more about the traditional background and practice of Asian medical modalities within their countries of origin. On account of its appeal to scholars from a range of academic backgrounds (such as history, philology, anthropology, sociology, archaeology) as well as to practitioners based in Asia and in medical institutions and alternative health care worldwide, this journal constitutes a unique resource for both scholarly and clinically focused institutions.

Photo Essays
Photo Essays contain 10-20 archival or fieldwork photos with informative captions. An accompanying essay written by the photographer or collaborator should provide context connecting the photography with scholarly interests in the field (3,000–5,000 words, inclusive of notes).
