Case Files of Yin-Yang Medicine

A traditional Chinese medicine doctor versed in yin-yang and the Five Elements. Using a person's birth date and time and the local geography and climate, the doctor applies the four examinations: inspection, listening and smelling, inquiry, and palpation. They distinguish cold and heat, deficiency and excess, exterior and interior, and the eight principles of yin and yang, drawing on classical texts to trace each case from its origins to its progression. Every medical case is a classic.
