Features: This book is one of the earliest systematic and comprehensive medical classics still existing in China, serving as the foundation of the theoretical system of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). The entire work consists of 12 volumes and 81 chapters, systematically elaborating on the theory of meridians and acupuncture techniques, summarizing the meridian theories and acupuncture technologies of China before the Han Dynasty, and laying the groundwork for the development of acupuncture and moxibustion. Illustrated Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon: Spiritual Pivot is the result of decades of research and exploration by Mr. Liu Yue into the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon: Spiritual Pivot. With his profound literary skills and extensive medical experience, he has for the first time employed a diagrammatic approach to interpret and elucidate the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon: Spiritual Pivot. Based on the principle of the interaction between heaven and earth's qi and the correspondence between heaven and humanity, it reveals the interconnectedness of the universe-human body-zang-fu organs, demonstrating the life processes of growth, transformation, contraction, and storage in the human body, as well as the dynamic balance of yin-yang and the generation-and-destruction of the five elements. The diagrammatic method uses concise lines and succinct language to distill the ancient and profound text and its deep meanings, presenting them through the connections of lines, making the content clear at a glance and offering a well-organized understanding. This book is suitable for reference by TCM clinicians, students of TCM institutions, and medical researchers.
