TITLE: The Treatment of Modern Wester Medical Diseases with Chinese Medicine
AUTHOR: Flaws, Bob and Sionneau, Philippe
DESCRIPTION:
Since the initial publication of this book, the most complete clinical manual on
the Chinese medical treatment of modern Western diseases, it has become far and
away the best selling title that we publish. Now this new second edition has
been expanded, updated, and improved. The new edition covers 79 common Western
diseases, seven more than the previous book. For each disease the book covers
both acupuncture and Chinese medicine protocols for treatment as well as a
comprehensive review of Western medicine. In addition, all the herb listings
have been reformatted as easy-to-read lists instead of paragraphs. The herbs are
now listed with pin-yin first and Latin nomenclature second. Finally, all herbal
listings have been updated to correspond to changes in the latest edition of
Chinese Herbal Medicine: Materia Medica by Bensky, Clavey, and Stoger.
New diseases covered:
- Stills Disease
- Ankylosing Spondylitis
- Fanconis Syndrome
- Dengue Fever
- Costochondritis
- Psoriatic Arthritis
- Rombergs Syndrome
I would personally like to congratulate and thank
Bob Flaws and Philippe Sionneau for such a wonderful contribution to Chinese
medicine and to all of us practicing in this complex moment.
