Each volume provides a detailed discussion on relevant aspects of rheumatic diseases from different perspectives. The content of each volume is relatively independent and self-contained yet closely interconnected and mutually supportive. In terms of content selection and organization, the book strives to accurately reflect the practical content of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), emphasizing the close integration of theory and practice, the long history and origins of TCM, its continuity, the inherent patterns and characteristics of rheumatic diseases, and the latest achievements of TCM and integrated Chinese and Western medicine in the study of rheumatic diseases and related fields, while appropriately incorporating the more mature and practical aspects of Western medicine. Building on tradition, the book highlights clinical applicability, transcends partisan biases, and prioritizes therapeutic efficacy with a patient-centered approach.
