Reader comments

I particularly like the description in the book about the ability of chrysanthemums to brighten eyesight and cool the wind. It reminded me of my own experience of admiring chrysanthemums in autumn. Moreover, the medicinal properties in the book read like ballads and are easy to remember. I feel like after reading this book, I have a deeper understanding of the world of traditional Chinese medicine!
