This review is from: Chinese Traditional Herbal Medicine Vol.II Materia Medica & Herbal Ref (Paperback)
This herbal resource gives you a clear and well orginied reference to herbal remedies. Once you have figured out the problem through diagnosis you can refer to this herbal to lookup appropriate remedies. *not a substitute for a liscensed practitioner* This is a book that you should have if you're serious about TCM. or herbal remedies (although you should be familiar with medical conditions within Chinese Medicine)It discusses the energies and flavors of herbs, the organ meridians affected, determining herb quality, dosage, prepatation, how and when to take herbs. The book lists remedies and herbs for many conditions treatable through TCM. The other chapters are: The Chinese Materia Medica Use of Chinese Herbal Formulas Treatment of Specific Disease Bibliography Sources for Chineses Herbs Index of Herbs by Latin Name .............. by Chinese Name Index of Herbal Formulas Index for ch. 3 Treatment of Specific Disease. In my opinion, this book should be used in conjunction with Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnosis Study Guide & Chinese Traditional Herbal Medicine Volume I Diagnosis and Treatment as they make a wonderful "home study" course.
