Illustrated books make TCM easy
Print Edition
A set of three bilingual books with illustrations on traditional Chinese medicine was released yesterday.
The authors are Chinese medicine masters, academicians of Chinese Academy of Sciences and Chinese Academy of Engineering who are also professionals in TCM.
The books are illustrated by Luo Xixian, known for his Chinese-style comic strips.
A global survey on China’s image last year found 47 percent considered TCM as the best representative of Chinese elements after Chinese cuisine. The three books, priced at 58 yuan (US$9.2) each, cover the history of Chinese medicine, diet and health cultivation as practised in TCM. The explanation of the special terms are aided with pictures.
Fan Huimin, one of the editors and a heart physician, said that she began to learn TCM after getting good feedback from her patients.
Another editor Yan Shiyun hopes the books would help enthusiasts from different countries to appreciate the culture and concepts of TCM, which is difficult to comprehend in the modern scientific world.
