From the Publisher
As practitioners ourselves, we were very excited when we came across the Chinese version of this book. Liu's practice of Chinese gynecology is more profound and advanced than many of his contemporaries, and his insights are particularly relevant for Western female patients. Liu is not afraid to criticize his fellow Chinese practitioners who often follow "the party line" even when this varies with real-life clinical practice. Liu's book is a breath of fresh air in its candidness and insight.
