With China's entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the rapid development of its economy, cultural exchanges between China and other countries have become increasingly frequent. Traditional Chinese Medicine, with its unique characteristics, has continuously attracted the interest and attention of people worldwide, and TCM has spread to the world at an unprecedented speed. The launch of this book is aimed at better promoting and popularizing TCM knowledge, helping TCM go global, and allowing the world to understand TCM.

The book is tailored for two types of readers: domestic TCM practitioners engaged in clinical, exchange, and teaching activities involving foreign affairs; and international students and scholars studying or researching TCM. The book adopts a bilingual Chinese-English format, systematically introducing almost all disciplines of TCM, including the history of TCM, basic theories, TCM diagnostics, acupuncture and moxibustion, tuina (Chinese massage), and clinical diseases of TCM. At the same time, to facilitate daily use, the book also summarizes and introduces English translations of TCM-specific phrases, commonly used Chinese herbal medicines, and English translations of TCM formulas and patent medicines.
