Exploring its 5000-year history, philosophical basis, and current Western clinical use, this valuable book reveals the secrets of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). It covers the basic premise and coherent logic of this ancient medical system, including its Taoist origins, holistic approach, diagnostic system, and treatment strategy. Detailing the underlying concepts that structure this time-proven practice, the book expounds on the concept of yin/yang, discusses the TCM interpretation of health v. dis-ease, and outlines the modalities and techniques employed to maintain or re-establish internal harmony.
