Publish Date: 2003-11-01
Features: This series of books is planned to publish around 140 titles. The selected TCM practitioners are all distinguished figures who have achieved remarkable accomplishments in clinical TCM practice, enjoy high prestige nationwide, and possess profound academic expertise. They represent the leading practitioners in various specialties, including Internal Medicine, Surgery, Gynecology, Pediatrics, Orthopedics, Acupuncture and Moxibustion, etc. There are two notable features of this series worth mentioning. First, in the preface section, we have made every effort to collect photographs of the practitioners, including some precious personal photos, clinical photos, autographs, and inscriptions by renowned scholars. These materials hold significant documentary value and reflect the authenticity of history. Second, this series consistently emphasizes the need to focus on the specific conditions that the practitioners excel in treating, providing in-depth and detailed introductions. It thoroughly showcases the practitioners' unique approaches to medication and prescription, aiming to present truly effective clinical content. In other words, if a condition is not within the practitioner's expertise, it should not be extensively covered. Instead, the series should deliver substantive insights rather than giving the impression that the practitioner can treat everything but ultimately fails to deliver effective results.
