Materia medica
Published in 2008
This work is a primary textbook for students as well as a clinical handbook for practitioners. It integrates a modern didactic learning approach with information derived from key Chinese university texts to give readers a clear and authentic resource for the study of Chinese medicinal therapy. Its conscientious design allows for efficiency in study and accessibility in the clinic, both of which are complemented by a variety of supplementary self-study materials on CD-ROM for students and professionals alike.
A distinguishing feature of the text lies in its detailed chapter introduction, which integrates core principles of internal medicine into the discussions of each category of medicinals.
By focusing on the various pathomechanisms, patterns, and traditional diseases involved in each category these introductions allow readers to gain a deeper understanding of the various conditions treated with medicinals.
Additionally, they provide the reader with insight into unusual features and special applications of specific medicinals.
