Features: Editor's Recommendation: Binhu Malyue was compiled by Li Shizhen, a renowned medical scientist of the Ming Dynasty. Li collected the essence of various pulse theories, summarized them into 27 pulse types, and presented the pulse types, identification of similar pulses, and pulse-related diseases in the form of rhyming couplets. These couplets are easy to read, memorize, and recall, making them an excellent learning resource for later generations of pulse study and highly esteemed by medical practitioners throughout history. However, due to the limitations of rhyming couplets, the text is concise and may be difficult to fully grasp upon first reading. To facilitate learning, the People's Medical Publishing House published Binhu Malyue Baihua Jie (Colloquial Explanation of Binhu Malyue) in the 1960s. This book has been extremely well-received by readers, with over 24 printings of the second edition and a total circulation of over 3 million copies. To meet the needs of modern readers, the Basic TCM Teaching and Research Office of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine revised this book for its third edition. The new edition restores the original text while providing clear and accessible translations, making it even easier for readers to study and memorize. It serves as an excellent guide for beginners of TCM and Western medicine students learning TCM.
