Features: The "Dictionary of Toxic Traditional Chinese Medicinal Herbs" elaborates on toxic traditional Chinese medicinal herbs from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine in terms of morphology, composition, pharmacology, poisoning, and treatment, filling this gap. However, the shortcoming is the lack of real color photographs, which is a significant defect in correctly identifying species, collecting, and processing them. The publication of "Color Atlas of Toxic Traditional Chinese Medicinal Herbs" to a large extent makes up for this deficiency. This book collects color photographs of 505 toxic herbs taken across the country, accompanied by concise descriptions. Most of these color photographs were taken by photographers who traveled through mountains and rivers, enduring hardships on-site. Each photograph is clear, realistic, highlights morphological characteristics, and vividly reflects the growth habits and ecological environments of these toxic traditional Chinese medicinal herbs. This book is a color atlas that allows for the visual identification of the morphological characteristics of toxic traditional Chinese medicinal herbs, making it highly practical. It serves as a reference book for teaching and research personnel in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, as well as a tool for the general public to identify toxic traditional Chinese medicinal herbs, holding significant scientific value.
