Features: This book aims to seek the entry points and integration points between Chinese and Western medicine. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), syndrome differentiation is used to grasp the essence of the disease—its etiology, pathogenesis, location, and nature—in the midst of complex symptoms, in order to treat the root cause. Disease differentiation also helps to understand the essence of the disease by establishing a comprehensive understanding of its patterns of occurrence and development, making syndrome differentiation treatment more accurate and targeted. The two approaches are not only complementary but also mutually reinforcing, contributing to improved therapeutic efficacy. The book adopts modern medical disease names and diagnostic criteria while applying TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment. It combines disease differentiation with syndrome differentiation, aligning with modern TCM clinical practice and representing a valuable exploration in the modernization of TCM.
