This text is focused on the presentation of five concepts which are
presented to help the reader gain a richer and fuller understanding
of how Chinese herb formulas can be arranged for the treatment
of various diseases. These five concepts are the Shang Han Lun models
of disease pathology; the concepts of qi, water, and blood; the basic
classifications of formulas; the basic conformations of formulas;
and Western medical indications. Over 85 formulas from the Shang Han Lun,
the Jin Gui Yao Lue, and other classical texts are arranged according
to body systems/areas. This work closely follows the works of the
author's mentor, Hong Yen Hsu.
