Abstract

The two-part edition together represents the principal documentary record of Wáng Jiǔfēng’s clinical practice. Wáng — the most famous medical disciple of 徐大椿 Xú Dàchūn — was the leading Zhènjiāng physician of the late-Qiánlóng to Dàoguāng period, carrying the Wú-jiāng-school Shānghán classicism into the early-nineteenth-century lower Yangtze. The cases in this second volume continue the syndrome-arranged display of his clinical methodology — strict pulse-and-tongue diagnosis, conservative dosing, and characteristic Shānghán-classical prescription protocols.

The composition window 1790–1923 brackets the original clinical period through the Republican-period editorial assembly.
