It is a challenge for Chinese medicine students to learn and retain information about the characteristics of the hundreds of commonly used Chinese herbs, and it is equally a challenge for the junior practitioner to be sure of selecting the best herbs to use in formulae.
Detailed and vivid comparisons and discussions of Chinese herbs to help the reader memorize and understand their characteristics
Structured as a series of thought-provoking questions with very detailed answers, again to help memorize the content
Includes "clinical applications" subsection within each section, to help the reader understand how to apply information better and more accurately in the clinical setting
