I really enjoyed this book until the last chapter and the afterword, which were so painfully boring that I'm proud of myself for not breezing through it. I'm also disappointed that not one reference was made to Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda, both of which are integral components of the respective cultures. That said, the rest of the book was quite fascinating and I greatly enjoyed the comparative framework.
