Features: In the compilation, we adhere to the principles of systematicity, practicality, specificity, and conciseness of the dictionary content, with Chinese medicine as the core, encompassing pharmacognosy, pharmaceutical technology, pharmacology, pharmac chemistry, botany, and basic theories of traditional Chinese medicine. The entire book collects over 3,500 specialized terms in modern Chinese medicine, providing three indexing methods: Chinese character stroke order, Chinese phonetic order, and English. The Chinese-English translations primarily use literal translations and have been reviewed by English professors and polished by foreign English professors for quality.
