The understanding and treatment of infectious and other externally-contracted diseases has been a central concern of Chinese medicine for millennia. Especially during the past few centuries, the concepts and treatment approaches of the warm pathogen disease school have percolated throughout Chinese medical thought. Modern practitioners apply them in the diagnosis and treatment of a wide variety of serious illnesses, including many which are common in the West, such as auto-immune disorders. Warm Pathogen Diseases: A Clinical Guide (Revised Edition) provides an in-depth, clinically oriented approach to this important subject. The introductory chapters tell the compelling story of how traditional Chinese physicians, primarily from the seventeenth through the nineteenth centuries, developed the theories and concepts of warm pathogen disease in response to the health crises of their time, which included a number of epidemics. The evolution of their approach to etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment, discussed in this volume, demonstrates how traditional medicine has evolved to meet contemporary needs. The second part of the book describes the various types of warm pathogen disease from a clinical perspective. Here the author discusses the manifestations, pathogenesis, treatment principles, and formulas for each type. Case histories show how theory is actually applied in the clinic. A variety of approaches is presented, which avoids the tendency to portray traditional Chinese medicine as an unchanging, monolithic entity. Over time, these differences have led to much creative foment and improvement in the efficacy of treatment. The author also addresses aspects of dosage and preparation that are generally omitted from standard textbooks. This part of the book will be particularly welcome to practitioners, who will find it useful in the clinic. Rounding out the volume is an extensive bibliography of original source materials, supp

A major new translation of the Chinese classic Shang Han Lun by scholar and medical doctor Guohui Liu makes this foundational text fully accessible to English speaking clinicians for the first time. Extensive study and research underpins the translation; the author's understanding of both classical and modern Chinese enables him to interpret fully the ancient work within the theory of Chinese medicine. An extensive commentary explains the translation, the difficulties with the text, how it has been subsequently translated and expands on the theory laid out in the original text to reach an understanding that can be applied in the clinic for diagnosis and treatment. The value of this classic text lies primarily in its establishment of a basic framework for differentiation and treatment, but it also presents 112 formulas and 88 medicinal substances, which are commonly applied in clinical work for various conditions. In this edition, the 112 formulas are fully explained in the context of the clinical experiences of well-known ancient and modern doctors, and they are also laid out in two appendices, cross referenced to the text.

Since the dawn of medical science, people have recognized connections between a change in the weather and the appearance of epidemic disease. With today's technology, some hope that it will be possible to build models for predicting the emergence and spread of many infectious diseases based on climate and weather forecasts. However, separating the effects of climate from other effects presents a tremendous scientific challenge. Can we use climate and weather forecasts to predict infectious disease outbreaks? Can the field of public health advance from "surveillance and response" to "prediction and prevention?" And perhaps the most important question of all: Can we predict how global warming will affect the emergence and transmission of infectious disease agents around the world? Under the Weather evaluates our current understanding of the linkages among climate, ecosystems, and infectious disease; it then goes a step further and outlines the research needed to improve our understanding of these linkages. The book also examines the potential for using climate forecasts and ecological observations to help predict infectious disease outbreaks, identifies the necessary components for an epidemic early warning system, and reviews lessons learned from the use of climate forecasts in other realms of human activity.

1-1 Relationships between formulas and treatment methods. In clinical practice, a physician makes a diagnosis of a disease or symptom, and then, figures out treatment methods, and then, selects a formula for treatment. "Selection of formulas should be determined by the treatment methods," "treatment methods should be determined by diagnosis results," and "treatment methods are inherent in formulas." As an example, A patient suffering from the common cold, with aversion to chills and fever, headache and bodyache, no perspiration, panting, a superficial and tight pulse. The physician makes a diagnosis and determines it is a superficial wind-cold excess disease and decides to treat the patient with a formula, because the formula in question is designed to treat a superficial wind-cold excess disease. 1-2 Commonly Used Treatment Methods The Yellow Emperor's Classics says, "When a patient is in poor physical shape, it is necessary to warm the body by the energy of herbs. When the patient is short of pure essence of energy, it is necessary to tone the body by the flavours of herbs. When the disease attacks the upper region, it is necessary to induce vomiting; when the disease attacks the lower region, it is necessary to induce bowel movements; when the disease attacks the middle region, it is necessary to promote digestion. When the pathogen attacks the superficial region, the patient should take a hot bath or an herbal steam bath to induce perspiration. When the disease attacks only the superficial region of the skin, it is necessary to induce perspiration.." Again, the Yellow Emperor's Classics says, "In treatment, hot herbs should be used to treat a cold disease. The counteracting methood should be applied to treat a lighter disease. The head-on method should be applied to treat a severe disease. A solid disease should be treated by weakening it. A disease caused by the pathogens that reside in the body as guests should be treated by removing such pathogens. A disease caused by deficient fatigue should be treated by the warming method. A disease caused by energy congestion should be treated by the dispersing method. A disease caused by pathogens that insist on residing should be treated by the attacking method. A dry disease should be treated by the lubricating method. An acute disease should be treaated by slowing down its progression. A dispersing disease should be treated by the constricting method. A disease caused by a loss of energy and blood should be treated by the warming method. A disease caused by a slow flow of energy and blood should be treated by the quickening method. A disease of shock should be treated by the calming method. A disease with cave-in of energy should be treated by the lifting method. A disease with uprising energy should be treated by the inhibited method. In addition, the grinding method, the bathing method, the wasting method, the depriving method, and the opening-up method.

In the spring of 2007, Jason Blalack asked his mentor, Wu Bo-Ping, what was the most important Chinese medical text to translate into English. After a few moments of thought, Dr. Wu presented Jason with a tattered paperback copy of the original edition of Qin Bo- Wei's New Guidelines for Treatment (c. 1953), a manuscript that for all intents and purposes had been lost during the Cultural Revolution. That is the text that forms the framework of this exciting new book. Qin Bo-Wei (1901-1970) was among the most important physicians of the modern era. As a prominent clinician, educator, and scholar, he worked to integrate classical schools of thought and created one of the most coherent systems for understanding Chinese medicine during a critical time of intense turbulence in China's history. Wu Bo- Ping was one of Dr. Qin's students and is among the few who are still living today. Translated and presented to a Western audience for the first time, Qin's original work is enriched by Dr. Wu's extensive commentary, which transforms it into a hands-on guide on how to effectively practice herbal medicine. An excellent clinical manual, this book primarily teaches a method of thinking that serves as a foundation for a lifelong approach to herbal medicine. An understanding of how to use the core concepts presented here allows one to effectively treat the majority of diseases seen in the contemporary clinic. The text itself is unique in its presentation and differs from other clinical manuals in a number of ways: Organized by treatment method. Teaches a way of emulating the thought underlying a prescription without being tied to its specified ingredients or original indications, thereby reflecting the thinking of Chinese medicine's greatest clinicians. Ultimately, this approach opens up treatment possibilities that are often ignored in conventional textbooks. Small number of ingredients. Dr. Qin's prescriptions contain a small number of preci
