Obstetrics and Gynecology in Chinese Medicine by Giovanni Maciocia
Written by Giovanni Maciocia, probably the most respected Western TCM practitioner and author of TCM texts, this is the most comprehensive obstetrics and gynaecology textbook in the English language. It covers the principles of diseases related to obstetrics and gynaecology in TCM and offers a full, clear and detailed exploration of this area. The text adapts Traditional Chinese gynaecology to Western conditions and patients, reflected in over 100 case histories. It includes an extensive chapter on the aetiology of gynaecological problems with: guidelines on women's lifestyle, in-depth discussion of 64 patterns and a discussion of Western differentiation of each, and in-depth discussion of eight extraordinary vessels.
