A foundational overview of traditional Chinese medical concepts

Yanchi Liu’s guide organizes traditional Chinese medicine around the concepts named in its description: yin-yang theory, the zang-fu organs, herbal practice, and acupuncture. Framed as a comprehensive introduction for Western audiences, it places approaches to maintaining health and addressing illness within a medical tradition documented over many centuries. The book’s clinical-practice emphasis and broad range of subjects position it as a reference-oriented entry point to the framework and therapies associated with traditional Chinese medicine, rather than a narrow study of any single treatment.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults seeking a broad introduction to traditional Chinese medicine
  • Students exploring yin-yang theory and zang-fu concepts
  • Readers interested in herbs and acupuncture within a traditional Chinese medicine framework

Book overview

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.
