### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    I had some good herbal teachers in school and this book is rich ...
  

*by O***N on Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2018*

I've relied on this book extensively for my schooling, board exams, and clinical practice. More than just a formulary, it gives you details of the historical development of formulas, and the TCM-based thinking for how and why they function. Each herb is explained in relation to the other herbs. These insights are crucial if you want to take your learning from just memorization to having a deeper wisdom of how the TCM formulas operate. I had some good herbal teachers in school and this book is rich enough in its details that I can recapture some of the amazing insights I learned from those teachers, through this text.

    This is probably my favorite book so far for herbals
  

*by T***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2017*

I am a TCM student in my 2nd year of Master's program for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. This is probably my favorite book so far for herbals. Layout is much like the Materia Medica for individual herbs, but formatted for formulas instead. Very good explanations and comparisons of formula modifications and other similar formulas. Highly reccommend for all TCM students!!

    A good resource with a poor index
  

*by A***D on Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2010*

This edition is a great improvement over the last.  My main complaint is the terse index which limits its clinical usefulness.  It is a good reference for learning or examining the formulas themselves, but less good as an efficient reference tool in the clinic.  The formula descriptions refer to symptoms common to diagnoses for which formulas are used, but the index doesn't reference those symptoms.  Even responsible practitioners of Chinese herbalism who prescribe according to diagnosis and not primarily to symptoms can find it useful to have an index in a book like this that contains symptomatic and western diagnostic references...after all, the information is in the book, why not be able to find where it is?  The Materia Medica by the same publisher does a much better job of indexing this material.
