Features: From the "Hippocratic Oath" in ancient Greece to the "Geneva Declaration" of 1948, it clearly declares the ultimate purpose of medicine: the health and harmony of both the physical and spiritual cultures of humanity. As a discipline that focuses on humans, medicine is not merely a technical field but is naturally closely related to all aspects of human life. This book focuses on traditional Chinese medicine, as well as the relationship between psychology, folklore, and the occurrence, progression, and distribution of diseases. It organizes and examines the causes, progress, and prevention or treatment-related customs of some major epidemic events in Chinese history, or explores new perspectives on the causes of death of historical figures such as Cao Cao and Zheng Chenggong. It is both entertaining and provides medical practitioners with a new research angle and valuable insights.
