The Science of Traditional Chinese Medicine has been developed since thousands of years ago. The experience and knowledge which have been collected by TCM practitioners are very important for Chinese people. TCM is one of the Chinese culture heritages which is worthy to be appreciated.
In everyday medical practices, doctors often face difficulties in handling various kinds of diseases, particularly cronic ones. In this situation, TCM often restores patients' health.
At the beginning, western doctors in general see TCM as a "nonstandard" medical treatment or as an alternative one. But, with the passage of time many finally accept and even appreciate TCM as a "complement" especially for cronic disease.
This book is launched with other two books, i.e. The Basic Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and The Integration of Western Medicine with Traditional Chinese Medicine. These books contain simple explanations which are easy to be understood. The three books are very good as guide for studying Traditional Chinese Medicine.
