[A history of medicine in the Hokuriku district].

This article is a review of the history of medicine in the Hokuriku district. Until the modern age, the Hokuriku district was an entrance for the importing of cultures from the Chinese continent. Characteristics of this district are continuity but separation with mountains between it and the capital, this district has been called "Koshi" (cross-over land). Despite its heavy snowfall and cold, it has abundant products due to its topography. In ancient times, the Hokuriku district supplied many crude drugs to the Court, and carried on relations with it through the palace doctors Nakarai and Tanba. In the middle ages, new Buddhism prospered in the Hokuriku district, and Buddhist doctors published medical books such as "Nan-ching" early. In the Edo period, the chief of the Kanazawa clan, an outside dâimyo, promoted a culture policy and collected a great amount of literature and such. Consequently, medicine in the Hokuriku district developed, and hastened the acceptance of modern western medicine.
