- Information
Description
This is the first botanically authoritative and practical illustrated identification guide to Chinese medicinal plants and drugs and their substitutes.
It offers authoritative guidance on the identification of the herbal drugs themselves, and the plants from which they are sourced.
Over the past 15 years, the authors have been collecting plant specimens throughout China, using verified species to create typical TCM reference drugs, prepared according to traditional methods.
The herbal drugs included in this book are officially recognised from the Chinese materia medica (as defined in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia) and their selection has been based on those popular in international trade, as well as those recognised by the European Herbal and Traditional Medicine Practitioners Association, and those that are easily confused, substituted or adulterated with other plants.
