Features: Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a valuable medical and cultural heritage of the Chinese nation. Chinese herbal medicine serves as the material foundation for TCM's prevention and treatment of diseases. Chinese herbal medicine originates from natural plants, animals, and minerals, and its resources are limited by natural environments such as climate, soil, and geology. Especially for precious Chinese herbal medicines, their yields are extremely limited. The author has long been engaged in the research and identification of Chinese herbal medicine and has always paid special attention to the use and development of precious Chinese herbal medicines. In recent years, the author has discovered many problems in the Chinese herbal medicine market. This book collects 28 genuine species of precious Chinese herbal medicines, 25 confusing species, and 49 counterfeit species. It provides comparisons and descriptions based on the external characteristics of Chinese herbal medicines, supplemented by 179 original, high-quality, full-color photographs created by the author for reference in identifying authenticity. Taking this opportunity, the author reminds readers that if they wish to obtain genuine Chinese herbal medicines, they should purchase them from authentic pharmacies.
