The book provides clinical practitioners with a fundamental understanding of the essence of TCM. The principle theories inherent within thousands of years of classical TCM are expounded upon: Provides a newer understanding of TCM by relying on evidence acquired from advanced research. Corrects inherent mistakes or omissions by discussing true TCM fundamentals independent of cultural or historical reasons. Recovers important concepts of TCM rarely acknowledged in current TCM practices. Facilitates modern medical practices with roots in TCM for better therapeutic efficacy. Provides a comprehensive understanding of TCM by relying on the latest scientific achievements. We highly recommend this book for students interested in TCM, Chinese medicine doctors and other healthcare professionals, biomedical researchers, and interested individuals. Readers will benefit from the inspirational viewpoints discussed in the book.
