Synopsis

"Compendium of Materia Medica" written by Wang Ang, a doctor in the Qing Dynasty, is an introductory classic of traditional Chinese medicine that "cuts out the complex and compiles the essentials, and returns the original to the original"! Different from the vastness of the "Compendium of Materia Medica", Wang Ang has selected 470 commonly used medicines with clinical practicality in mind, removing the obscure ones, extracting the essence, and going straight to the core. It can be called a "practical manual for traditional Chinese medicine"! The format of this book is clear. Each medicine details its nature, flavor, meridian tropism, efficacy, and indications. The pharmacological mechanism and incompatibility are explained in depth. The language is easy to understand and well organized, so even beginners can easily master it. Whether they are medical students who want to systematically learn Chinese medicine or ordinary people who love Chinese medicine culture, they can benefit a lot from it. Wang Ang is a scholar who is well versed in medicine and writes fluently. He has transformed profound medicinal properties into popular and practical clinical guidelines, and is known as "a milestone in the popularization of the study of Materia Medica." The wisdom in the book spans three hundred years and is still shining brightly in TCM teaching and clinical practice today! If you want to get started with Chinese Materia Medica easily, or want to have a book of Materia Medica that you can look up at your fingertips and learn and use immediately - "Compendium of Materia Medica" is definitely your best choice!
