Competition and Regulation for Inclusive Growth in Southern Africa.Indd 1 2019/07/03 14:43 Competition and Regulation THE CHAPTERS COLLECTED IN THIS VOLUME address key issues of competition Inclusive Growth in Southern Africa Competition and Regulation for and economic regulation in Southern and East Africa with reference to regional value chains and industries. The contributions locate international debates on competition and corporate power in the critical issue of inclusive growth. There is a particular focus on shaping regional energy markets in order to take into account the implications of climate change as well as the challenges of extending access to affordable energy to low income edited by households and small businesses. Jonathan Klaaren, The book is a critical assessment of the efficacy of the competition and economic regulation framework. Several contributions review the impact of the competition authorities in the Simon Roberts & region and survey the impact of particular interventions in the competition and economic regulation arena. This volume thus accomplishes two hitherto-unfulfilled tasks: examining Imraan Valodia in a single framework both competition and economic regulation and taking a Southern/ East African view in examining these two topics. This book should be widely read since competition and regulation are both distinct but crucial and linked areas of knowledge for the development of the economies of the countries of Southern and East Africa. It provides specific and concrete policy recommendations while also exploring the role of regulatory control in achieving various economic growth Competition and objectives. The book responds to the clear need in the field of competition and economic regulation to develop a body of Africa-based knowledge and literature which originates from the Regulation for experiences of countries in the region rather than an exclusive reliance on international precedent and learnings. The book develops African case studies for both training and knowledge-sharing purposes. These issues are of interest from both an academic and practitioner/businessperson’s Inclusive Growth perspective. The contributions show these issues are particularly relevant in terms of regional economic development where countries in the region often face the same challenges of small, concentrated markets where barriers to entry are especially high and where the resources to enforce against anticompetitive conduct are limited. in Southern edited by Jonathan Klaaren, & Imraan Valodia “THE BOOK IS OF A HIGH CALIBRE, it is very informative and will be useful as Simon Roberts Africa a guide for competition law practitioners, policymakers, economists and university students. The selection of topics is very interesting and focuses on relevant issues common to Southern African countries. One such issue is that of energy which in recent times has become a growing concern as Southern African countries face an energy crisis which threatens economic growth and development in this region.” – Yasmin Carrim, member of the Competition Tribunal of South Africa 978 1 9 2 8 2 3 2 803 ISBN 978-1-928232-80-3 www.jacana.co.za Competition and Regulation for Inclusive Growth in Southern Africa.indd 1 2019/07/03 14:43 Competition and Regulation Competition and Regulation for Inclusive Growth in Southern Africa Edited by Jonathan Klaaren, Simon Roberts & Imraan Valodia First published by Fanele, an imprint of Jacana Media (Pty) Ltd, in 2019 10 Orange Street Sunnyside Auckland Park 2092 South Africa +2711 628 3200 www.jacana.co.za © Individual contributors, 2019 All rights reserved.

Ayurvedic College, Guwahati, Assam, India. ABSTRACT Burn injury has been associated with the evolution of human civilization since time immemorial. Burn injuries has always been faced by human in different era with change of mode injury from past to present. Unlike other diseases the basics of burn injury remains more or less same. The basic concepts and principles of management of burn injury is described in Ayurveda are very much relevant and useful in this era of modern surgery. Sushrut Samhita, the treasure of surgical knowledge of ancient Indian civilization, is a rich source of information regarding burn injury, assessment and management. Most of the other scholars of Ayurveda follow the basic concept of Sushrut Samhita. All the Brihatrayee (three greater treatises) and Laghu trayee (three lesser treatises) and other relevant textbooks of Ayurveda studied to search the different data regarding Dagdha vrana (burn injury), etiological description, gradation, different principles of treatment and available dressing material. The collected data evaluated scientifically to make it usable in the modern era of surgery. The result shows that although there is change in mode of burn injury found in modern era, the basic principles of etiology, classification, management and use of dressing material are almost the same as standard burn wound management of contemporary medical science.
