It reflects an understanding of the patterns of teaching content and methods in traditional Chinese medicine and an appreciation of the goals of cultivating traditional Chinese medicine professionals. This series of textbooks is based on the new teaching syllabus from the Ministry of Education of China and the requirements of the National Medical Examination for Practitioners of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It takes as its blueprint the higher medical college textbooks published by Shanghai Scientific and Technical Publishers, which highlight the traditional and distinctive features of traditional Chinese medicine (5th edition), as well as the general higher education textbooks for traditional Chinese medicine (6th edition) that reflect the latest achievements in the field. It fully incorporates the reasonable innovations from various existing domestic and international editions of both traditional Chinese and Western medicine textbooks.

The goal is to achieve "concise, up-to-date, practical, and economical" characteristics.
