Features: Liyue Pianwen (Treatise on External Therapy) was originally titled Waizhi Yishuo and was written by Wu Shijī during the Qing Dynasty. It is a specialized work on external therapy in China. The author dedicated his life to in-depth research on external therapy. He believed that "the principles of medicine and the properties of herbs are one," and that "the theory of external therapy is the same as that of internal therapy; the herbs used in external therapy are also the same as those used in internal therapy—the only difference lies in the methods." The book presents dozens of external therapy methods. The author widely applied external therapy methods to various clinical disciplines, including internal medicine, surgery, gynecology, pediatrics, ophthalmology, otolaryngology, and dermatology. He made significant contributions to the summary and development of traditional Chinese medicine external therapy. Later generations revered Liyue Pianwen as the "foundational text of external therapy." This book is suitable for students and practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine theory and clinical practice, as well as students of traditional Chinese medicine colleges and enthusiasts of traditional Chinese medicine for study and reference.
