Features: One of the most precious scientific legacies in ancient Chinese medical treasure trove, Compendium of Materia Medica, was written by the outstanding Ming Dynasty medical scholar Li Shizhen with his life's dedication. It can be regarded as an immortal masterpiece in the history of Chinese medical culture. With profound scholarship and rich content, it has won the acclaim and appreciation of the medical community both at home and abroad, playing a significant role in treating diseases and promoting human health development. This book takes the most complete Jinling edition as the blueprint, presenting and explaining common and practical drugs in the form of question-and-answer. During the editing process, a small portion of the sections no longer commonly used in modern times, such as the Water, Human, and Stone sections, were selected to ensure completeness; the original classical Chinese was translated into "colloquial language," making it a user-friendly guide for understanding Compendium of Materia Medica.
