Gynaecology Revisited is a skilful blend of Chinese medicine concepts and Western anatomy and physiology. Jane Lyttleton wrote: “In the age of the information explosion, of increasing complexity in all facets of life and of weighty 800 page textbooks, it is a pleasure to be able to introduce a gynaecology text which gives us the whole story in a concise but complete form.”
Chinese for TCM Practitioners teaches simple spoken Chinese and the terminology of Chinese medicine. The text includes simple everyday phrases, classic quotes and proverbs, Chinese medicine terminology, historical milestones in Chinese Medicine and a table of the Chinese dynasties.
Shang Han Lun Explained is a translation and discussion of the classic text Shang Han Lun, written by the Han dynasty physician Zhang Zhong Jing in 200 AD. This represented a huge leap in medical knowledge, analysing the aetiology, pathogenesis and complications of a broad range of conditions, from acute respiratory tract infections to complications of disease.
