His grasp of the Discussion of Cold Damage (Shang Han Lun) ) was unrivalled, and his use of simple direct Classical formulas to treat complex and puzzling diseases made his published work required reading for generations of Chinese herbal medicine students. These essays and case histories, translated by Steve Clavey, collect the best of over twenty years of publication in The Lantern, one of the most popular of the Chinese medicine journals published in the Western world. For the students of Classical Formulas, or for the Chinese herbs medicine student in general, this book provides access to the mind of a truly sophistticated practiioner of the art, whose experience and clinical flexibility are truly inspiring.
