Paradigm Publications 1999 1st Edition

TheĀ Shang Han LunĀ has been a primary treatment theory and practice source for nearly 2000 years. Its author, Zhang Ji, is called the ‘Chinese Hippocrates’ to highlight the depth and breadth of his contributions to traditional Chinese drug therapy. This English-language edition features simultaneously the Chinese text, the pinyin transliteration, and an English translation of the entire Song dynasty text. Just as in Chinese-language editions, it is fully supplemented with notes and commentaries. The notes describe the clinical symptoms Zhang Ji associated with the Chinese terms. The commentaries enhance the text’s clinical utility, explaining the theoretical and practical foundations behind the lines of text. The introductory matter explains the background of the text, the conceptual structure of its contents, and the problems of exegesis. The appendices are designed to assist those studying Chinese, and the glossary and the full Pinyin-English index make this an easily accessed reference. With translational supervision and contributions from Nigel Wiseman and Feng Ye this is certain to be a valuable text for reference and study.
