Its authorship is attributed to the great Huang Di, the Yellow Emperor, who reigned during the third millennium BCE. This new translation consists of the eighty-one chapters of the section of the \u003ci\u003eNeijing\u003c\/i\u003e known as the \u003ci\u003eSuwen, \u003c\/i\u003e or \"Questions of Organic and Fundamental Nature.\" (The other section, called the \u003ci\u003eLingshu, \u003c\/i\u003e is a technical book on acupuncture and is not included here.) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWritten in the form of a discourse between Huang Di and his ministers, \u003ci\u003eThe Yellow Emperor's Classic of Medicine \u003c\/i\u003e contains a wealth of knowledge, including etiology, physiology, diagnosis, therapy, and prevention of disease, as well as in-depth investigation of such diverse subjects as ethics, psychology, and cosmology. All of these subjects are discussed in a holistic context that says life is not fragmented, as in the model provided by modern science, but rather that all the pieces make up an interconnected whole. By revealing the natural laws of this holistic universe, the book offers much practical advice on how to promote a long, happy, and healthy life. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe original text of the \u003ci\u003eNeijing\u003c\/i\u003e presents broad concepts and is often brief with details. The translator's elucidations and interpretations, incorporated into the translation, help not only to clarify the meaning of the text but also to make it a highly readable narrative for students--as well as for everyone curious about the underlying principles of Chinese medicine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-7419251\"\u003eMaoshing Ni\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shambhala\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/10\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 6.04w x 0.91d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781570620805\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1570620806\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-MED\"\u003eMedical\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-MED039000\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-HEA\"\u003eHealth \u0026amp; Fitness\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-HEA032000\"\u003eAlternative Therapies\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-MED\"\u003eMedical\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-MED004000\"\u003eAlternative \u0026amp; Complementary Medicine\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaoshing Ni, Ph.D., is a doctor of Oriental medicine and a licensed acupuncturist in Santa Monica, California.
