Description
This 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 patients symptoms and signs - which form a pattern - many factors beyond traditional Western symptoms are taken into consideration e.g. a patients voice, the absence of thirst, feeling hot or cold, the patients smell, tone of voice, glitter of eyes. Thus, Chinese diagnosis is based on a subtle appraisal of a patients 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
