The Treatment Of Disease In TCM Vol. 2: Diseases of the Eyes, Ears, Nose and Throat

This is the second in a seven-volume series titled The Treatment of Disease in TCM by Philippe Sionneau and Lu Gang. In this volume, the authors discuss the disease causes and mechanisms, pattern discrimination, treatment principles, formulas and their modifications, and acupuncture and moxibustion for a wide variety of diseases of the eyes, ears, nose, and throat. Not only are many of these problems (such as itchy eyes, chalazion, otophyorrhea, and bleeding from the ears) not discussed in the current English language literature on TCM, but under each disease category, the authors give the most complete pattern discrimination available in English. Thus, this series of books is a rich mine of clinical information and effective treatments for a wide variety of diseases and their patterns.
