Reader comments
This book "Collection of Ancient Prescriptions" is really rich in content, covering prescriptions from various disciplines such as internal medicine, external medicine, gynecology, and pediatrics, as well as content on clothes, flowers, trees and other miscellaneous matters. It feels like a small encyclopedia of ancient life. The annotations are also very detailed and well organized, making it easier for us to ask for prescriptions according to the disease. I think this book is not only suitable for people majoring in traditional Chinese medicine, but also suitable for those of us who are interested in traditional Chinese medicine to understand and learn. Just like the last time I saw a prescription, it was very similar to my relative's illness, and it was really valuable for reference.
