Features: This book is divided into three chapters, which are also set up around three destinations of the grand structure of Compendium of Materia Medica:
Chapter 1 – The Fa?ade and Architecture. In this chapter, we still stand outside the gate, observing before entering. The Book of (Compendium of Materia Medica) and The System of the Pharmacopeia in (Compendium of Materia Medica) allow us to admire the architectural framework of Compendium of Materia Medica from the outside, and the key to the gate is also preserved in this section.
Chapter 2 – Entering the Hall and Room. In this chapter, we enter the gate. After entering, there are many doors, rooms, decorations, and furnishings. How to appreciate and understand them is the focus of this section.
Chapter 3 – The Garden of Golden Valleys. Compendium of Materia Medica is undoubtedly a treasure trove. To find the treasures, we should go to the original text of Compendium of Materia Medica. Unlike a textbook, this book does not require a progressive approach. Readers can freely choose to read different chapters, directly enter the gate, linger outside, or first explore the garden.
