Features: This series is selected from the rare medical books in the Gugong Zhenben Congkan·Yijia Lei collection and published after careful editing. These medical texts are unique, rare, and highly practical. Long kept within the imperial palace, they have been rarely accessible to the public. Therefore, the publication of these books holds significant importance for the study of medical history and literature, as well as for the clinical application of medical practitioners. The seven rare imperial palace medical books included in this collection are all invaluable and highly practical works. They are printed in simplified characters, meticulously edited, and accompanied by a post-editing preface at the end. This preface outlines the content, briefly examines the authors, clarifies the historical transmission of the editions, and summarizes the editing methods. This greatly benefits researchers and practitioners who use the book. Regarding the features of this collection, there is one small detail worth mentioning to the readers: each book is preceded by a newly compiled detailed table of contents. This table is so detailed that it lists every formula, disease, treatment, and even every herb, among other things, making it easy to find specific information.
