Features: "The Theory of Different Schools of Traditional Chinese Medicine" is a comprehensive advanced course in the field of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Through the study of the main academic schools of TCM, major TCM theories, and the academic thoughts and clinical experiences of famous historical physicians, the goal is to enhance the theoretical and clinical proficiency in TCM. The revision of "The Theory of Different Schools of Traditional Chinese Medicine" adheres to the principle of closely integrating clinical practice and highlighting the introduction of theories and experiences of renowned historical physicians that hold practical clinical value. The textbook is divided into three parts: Part 1 introduces the main schools of TCM, Part 2 introduces 35 famous TCM physicians, and Part 3 introduces eight major TCM theories. The introduction of the main academic schools of TCM provides readers with an outline of the development of TCM academic thought. The selection of the 35 famous TCM physicians is based on their academic achievements and the enduring clinical significance of their theories and experiences. Those who excel solely in theoretical research have been excluded. The section on major TCM theories includes theories that hold significant theoretical and practical value, aiming to elevate readers' academic proficiency in TCM from the perspective of theories. In the references to ancient literature in the book, there are items listed as prohibited in the Wildlife Protection Law. In our study and future clinical practice, we should pay attention and strictly comply with relevant regulations.
