 Writing of Modern Medicine Textbooks in Urdu.
                      
      It is well-known today that unless Urdu becomes a storehouse of modern knowledge by extending its scope to include in its fold all modern discipline, particularly, the modern science and medicine, it is bound to loose its appeal for the younger generation. It is quite apparent today that Urdu should not confine itself to pure literature, that is, poetry, short stories and novel writing. Further, along with the above-mentioned, our intelligentsia should also be aware of our scientific heritage, particularly that of medieval India. Urdu is the language, through which some of the students gain access to modern developments in medicine and science- hence the importance of textbook writings in Urdu.
