Features: The Treatise on Conventional Patterns (Lei Jing) is a classic medical work by the great Ming Dynasty physician Zhang Jiebing, who classified and annotated the entire Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon (Huangdi Neijing). It includes: Lei Jing, Lei Jing Tu Yi (Illustrated Compendium of Lei Jing), and Lei Jing Fu Yi (Supplementary Compendium of Lei Jing). Due to its profound medical theory and extremely high academic research value, it has been revered by later scholars as a guide and essential reading for those entering the field of medicine. The current collation and correction of Lei Jing uses the Ming Dynasty Tianqi 4th-year (1624) woodblock edition of Jin Chang Tong Yongquan as the base text, with the Daoguang 20th-year (1840) Hongdao Tang woodblock edition as the reference. The collation and correction work lasted one year, resulting in a complete and meticulously annotated text. All inconsistencies, omissions, and errors in the original book have been carefully adjusted and corrected. It is currently the most complete annotated edition of Lei Jing in China. It holds a leading position domestically and can be considered a classic guide for modern readers, making it easy to understand, read, and learn from.
