Features: Tang Rongchuan (1846—1897), originally named Zonghai, was a famous medical scholar from Peng County, Sichuan during the late Qing Dynasty. He advocated the integration of Chinese and Western medicine, aiming to demonstrate traditional Chinese medical theories from the perspective of Western medicine. He was one of the representative figures of the school of integrating Chinese and Western medicine. His academic achievements are primarily reflected in his research on blood disorders. His representative work, On Blood Disorders, holds significant academic value, with insightful perspectives, evidence-based arguments, and practical prescriptions, exerting a profound influence on later generations.

At the end of the book, there is also an essay titled Research on the Medical Academic Thought of Tang Rongchuan, which adds further enlightenment for readers. This book integrates the compilation of ancient texts with modern research, possessing high academic value and serving as a reference for professionals in traditional Chinese medicine and those working in integrated Chinese and Western medicine.
