Review
".Unschuld's is a very useful work and much-welcomed effort. It should be included in any library interested in Chinese history or Chinese medicine." -- The Journal of Asian Studies
"Clearly we have come a long way from the muddled and mystical translations of medical works that appeared when Chinese medicine was just beginning to revive in the United States and Europe." -- China Review International
"It is a scholarly undertaking well worth the reading time to gleam gems of holistic healing philosophy still applicable today. Definitely for the serious student of Chinese medicine." -- The American Herb Association
"Reading the text we have the privilege of learning from a superb physician sharing the experiences of a lifetime's work. These insights are supported by Unschuld's careful annotation and translation. Highly recommended to anyone interested in Oriental medicine." -- TAS Journal
"This is a timeless text by a physician-scholar and medical writer which carries such inherent universality in its thought that the reader may easily feel like the author's contemporary colleague. Will serve as a frequent reference source and provide excellent teaching material in the field." -- The AAMA Review
"Those interested in the history of Chinese medicine and science will certainly want to read this (and any) work by Paul U. Unschuld." -- Foster's Botanical and Herb Reviews
