For woman's health great insight,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Flourishing Yin: Gender in China's Medical History: 960-1665 (Paperback)
A very informative text and source book on the history and practice of woman's health and healing in ancient China. Her scholarship is immaculate and her insight into the "Yellow Emperor's Body" showed the distinction between sex and gender. She traces the development of TCM treatment of woman's illness and how it becomes essential. That very early on, the Chinese Doctor are aware of the difference between woman and man in their similar sickness. A good resource for all woman Qigong and Taiji students as well as their teachers. This book also deal with the basics of the Chinese medical concept of vital fluid of blood, Jing/Creative essence, and Shen/ the Spirit, and the developmental stages of the woman's life cycles.
