The Growth Story of an Unconventional Doctor

Introduction to the content of "The Growth Story of a Great Doctor" It tells the story of how Shi Yuanming, a child who grew up in the mountains, developed a unique path of traditional Chinese medicine with his keen observation of all things in nature and an ancestral "Compendium of Materia Medica". Since childhood, Shi Yuanming has shown talents that are different from ordinary people: observing ants looking for grass to heal themselves, and understanding the secrets of medicinal properties; identifying signs of mixed cold and heat in veterinary prescriptions, which first showed his talent. He was not bound by the sect of his disciples. He used heaven and earth as his classroom and all things as his teaching materials. He got a glimpse of the true meaning of medicine from the changes of the four seasons and the habits of insects and animals. His use of medicine is imaginative but not based on medical principles. It may seem eclectic, but in fact it goes straight to the root of the disease. This book will follow Shi Yuanming's growth and witness how he grew from a highly questioned "little doctor" to a true master who has a thorough understanding of medicine. This is not only a legendary story of self-taught talent, but also a life tribute to exploring the essence of traditional Chinese medicine, thinking about inheritance and innovation.
