DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe principles and practice of diagnostics are key to administering effective treatment in traditional Chinese medicine. The ability to recognise and diagnose symptoms and complaints correctly is fundamental to deciding on appropriate remedies, and this book provides a comprehensive introduction to all the principles that students and practitioners need to know. The authors outline the key methods used in diagnosis, and describe the eight basic categories of ailment and disease: yin and yang, exterior and interior, cold and heat, and deficiency and excess. They provide detailed instructions on how to identify and rebalance the relative strengths of pathogens and Qi in the body, and how to differentiate between syndromes that might look the same, using traditional Chinese medicine methods. The book concludes with useful forms for completion in taking a diagnosis. Combining practical instruction with detailed theory, this authoritative textbook, compiled by the China Beijing International Acupuncture Training Center (CBIATC), under the editorial direction of leading Chinese clinicians Zhu Bing and Wang Hongcai, is an excellent reference for students and practitioners at all levels.

This book--newly revised in 1995--systematically describes each of the primary characteristics of the tongue (body color, shape and coating) and their significance in the clinic. It traces the historical development of tongue diagnosis and its relationship to externally- contracted disorders and the eight principals.

Other aspects of tongue diagnosis newly described in this edition include the integration of tongue and pulse diagnosis; the use of the tongue in diagnosing emotional problems; tongue diagnosis and herbal treatment; the tongue in prognosis; and special considerations regarding tongue diagnosis in children.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTypically, a textbook of TCM diagnostics consists of two aspects: first, learning how to look for indications of a patient, including clinical signs, symptoms, and diseases; second, learning the syndromes to account for the indications. In clinic, a doctor diagnoses a patient to collect indications from the patient by observations, questioning, etc such as diarrhea, cough, pale complexion, red tongue, and so on. Each indication may be attributed to a number of syndromes in the vast majority of cases. On the other hand, each syndrome may contain a number of indication also. The traditional methods of diagnosis include: (1) diagnosis by observations; (2) diagnosis by auscultation (hearing) and olfaction (sense of smell); (3) diagnosis by interrogating the patients; (4) diagnosis by taking the pulse and palpation. Generally speaking, diagnosis by observations is to identify change that occurs on body surface of the patient by observations, including tongue diagnosis. Tooth marks on the tongue may be attributed to spleen energy deficiency, damp sputum obstructing middle burning space, both energy and yin in deficiency. Tongue without coating points to deficiency, internal dryness, cold, energy deficiency, heat at the nutritive level.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis major, new book is a complete, easily accessed and highly illustrated guide to diagnosis in Chinese Medicine. Emphasis is placed on "real world" issues and symptoms, and the text focuses on clear interpretations of signs and symptoms - the practice beyond the theory. Since Chinese medicine diagnosis relies on a subjective appraisal of the patient's symptoms and signs - which form a pattern - many factors beyond traditional Western symptoms are taken into consideration e.g. a patient's voice, the absence of thirst, feeling hot or cold, the patient's smell, tone of voice, glitter of eyes. Thus, Chinese diagnosis is based on a subtle appraisal of a patient's disharmony, which may not be a "disease" at all, and as such requires careful interpretation of a range of nuances. This book will help lead students and practitioners through basic on to sophisticated levels of diagnostic interpretation Provides a clinical understanding of Traditional Chinese Medicine Offers an unparalleled depth of information that is meticulously cross-referenced Includes all the signs and symptoms, however subtle, that a modern patient may present in the clinic Provides clinical experience and understanding from a leader in the field of Chinese medicine Clearly outlines the decision-making options in key situations to help readers through the most challenging topics Logically organized so readers can quickly find the information they need in clinical situations
