Chinese Village Close-Up (China Studies Series)

I received my copy of this book several years ago from a friend who was traveling in China. (I was surprised to find it in the West - but Amazon has everything!) I have read it again and again. The tales are, unmistakably, folk wit from centuries past, and yet amusing for today as well. You'll find several that apply to people and situations you run into daily. (Some Uygur independence groups have recently been officially recognized as terrorists by the US, in an effort to get more anti-terrorist cooperation from China - to add a certain poignancy to this review. Uygur (pronounced Wee-gur) people are Islamic.) (Amazon customer)

Dr Zhang Zhongjing, studied previous TCM classical literature, and collected many effective herbal prescriptions elsewhere, and finally wrote his masterpiece Shanghan Zabing Lun. Unfortunately, shortly after being published, his book was lost during wartime. Dr. Zhang's masterpieces were collected by later generations, re-arranged by Dr. Wang Shuhe in the Jin Dynasty and then separated by the Bureau for Collation of Medical Books of the Song Dynasty (1065). As a result, his book was divided form one book into 2 books, one titled Shanghan Lun "Treatise on Febrile Diseases Caused by Cold"; the other, Jin Kui Yao Lue "Synopsis of Prescriptions of the Golden Chamber".Shanghan Lun is the first classical book in TCM which deals with mechanism, therapeutic principles and methods, prescriptions and herbs. Particularly, therapeutic principles and methods are plentiful in Shanghan Lun which includes eight-therapeutic methods such as diaphoresis, emetic method, harmonizing, purgative therapy, heat clearing, warming method, tonifying therapy, and resolving therapy; as well as external therapy, acupuncture, moxibustion, combination of herbal prescription and acupuncture, etc.
