Features: Life has stages—birth, growth, maturity, old age, and death, which is an inevitable natural law. For everyone, life is a one-time opportunity, and people all wish to be healthy and long-lived. This book explores the patterns of preventing illness and combating aging from the perspective of academic thought. This is a cognitive process that is neither analytical, synthetic, judgmental, or inferential based on surface-level concepts—clinical thinking; nor is it the line of thought for treating a specific disease—clinical thinking; nor is it entirely different from general practical experience. Academic thought is a specialized academic viewpoint refined through long-term objective medical practice combined with theoretical research, and it is the result of human thinking activities. Therefore, academic thought is the most important aspect of TCM academic experience. Exploring academic thought helps to fundamentally study the patterns of TCM in preventing and treating elderly diseases.
