Features: This book is compiled by the disciples of Master Zhu based on their academic experiences. It has been revised three times, with the most recent Ming Dynasty edition by Chen Yun as the most complete. The introduction consists of six essays, outlining the principles and guiding ideology of Master Zhu's approach to treating diseases. The main part of the book is divided into five volumes, covering 100 disease conditions across various specialties such as internal medicine, external medicine, gynecology, pediatrics, and ophthalmology/otolaryngology. Each disease is treated in a dedicated chapter, beginning with Master Zhu's original arguments, followed by Dai Sigong's differential diagnosis, and then the prescribed formulas and appendices. It fully reflects Master Zhu's experience and characteristics in treating diseases across different specialties. At the end of the book, there are appendices such as Song Lian's "Eulogy for the Late Master Zhu" and Dai Liang's "Biography of the Elder of Liang Creek," which are important historical materials for studying Master Zhu's life. This book is a compilation of Master Zhu's clinical experiences, offering great insights. As everyone knows, the Neijing (Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon) already had the term "five qi stagnation." This book does not focus on general annotations of words and phrases but instead analyzes and interprets them through modern research and practical applications.
