Features: The prosperity of Wenzhou medicine has two shining periods, one during the Southern Song Dynasty and the other in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, with many things worth us being proud of. The Southern Song Dynasty's "Yongjia Medical School" focused on academic research and debate around compiling, revising, correcting, and commenting on the "Yi Jian Fang," achieving academic accomplishments that could stand shoulder to shoulder with the Hejian, Yishui schools, jointly creating a vibrant atmosphere of medical school competition and academic prosperity during the Song, Jin, and Yuan dynasties, and securing a place in the history of Chinese medicine. The splendid medical culture of modern Wenzhou, represented by institutions like Lijia Hospital and Lijia School, was even more brilliant, with renowned doctors emerging one after another and outstanding works appearing frequently. This book collects various versions of the original Chinese medical texts, compares them, identifies their origins, and then selects the earliest versions with complete content and meticulous editing as the working basis. The book makes extensive references to the previous scholars' collation results, fully absorbing their reasonable opinions.
