Features: With the deepening of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine research, most medical schools in China have offered "Methods of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine" and related courses. However, there is currently no matching textbook to accompany these teachings. To meet the needs of teaching and enable graduate and undergraduate students in medical schools to systematically learn and master the knowledge of this discipline, this book was compiled by teachers from Hunan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The book is divided into 19 chapters. Chapters 1–3 primarily elaborate on the models, methods, connotations, and extensions of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, as well as integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine. Chapters 4–5 propose guiding principles for integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine practice and introduce basic research methods. Chapters 6–7 discuss the approaches and methods for basic and clinical research in integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine, respectively. Chapter 8 introduces methods for integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine research in the pharmaceutical system and related issues of combined application of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. Chapter 9 provides an overview of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine research abroad. Chapter 10 highlights its significant role in cultivating talents in traditional Chinese and Western medical schools. This book is comprehensive, well-structured, appropriately detailed, and serves as a textbook for students in medical schools and continuing education courses. It is also suitable for medical professionals and researchers engaged in integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine for reference.
