Eplsodes in Traditional Chinese Medicine
This book is one in a series on traditional Chinese culture. In
the history of its struggle with Nature for existence, China has
made many outstanding achievements in agriculture, medicine
and pharmacology through the course of its struggle against
Nature and the elements. Chinese medicine and pharmacology,
in particular, have advanced and thrived according to traditional
ways of thinking quite different from the rest of the world. The
ancient Taoist and Confucian schools of thought produced many
medical scientists and pharmacoiogists of high repute and
excellent skills capable of seeing beyond the shaman rituals and
superstitions of their day. Thelr deeds in healing the wounded
and saving lives are still a source of inspiration, and have been
collected in this book for our readers. The strong ethics of the
traditional Chinese physician have survived many of the
vicissitudes of life, and this too is included within these pages.
We hope to bring to you an interesting account of the unique
discoveries and original ideas Chinese doctors and researchers
have made in immunity, anatomy, internal medicine, surgery,
gynaecology, pediatrics, health protection and life enhancement.
Anyone who is eager to know about them will find this book
most helpful, interesting and intelligent as it contains much
information on science, life and human foibles. The book
provides extensive knowledge of how Chinese safeguard their
health to prolong their life in the traditional Chinese way, and
thus has a practical value to the reader.
