For more than four thousand years, Chinese scholars and medical practitioners have documented ways of maintaining health and treating illness, from theories of yin-yang and the zang-fu organs to the use of herbs and acupuncture. The Essential Book of Traditional Chinese Medicine marks the first time such concepts have been made accessible to Westerners in a comprehensive form.

Now, for the first time, a complete account of traditional Chinese medicine...Volume One is devoted to theory [founded on] the Five Elements of water, fire, wood, metal, and earth, which categorized all natural phenomena including the interaction of body organs...Treatment is the subject of Volume Two, [which contains] a table covering all plants, animals, and minerals believed to have therapeutic activity. Times Literary Supplement Reflects a great deal of work not only by the author...but also by a group of ten highly proficient translators and editors on both sides of the Pacific who did a wonderful job.
