Detailed Description
Tongue Diagnosis in Chinese Medicine (revised edition, hardcover, 164 pp., 59 color plates) by Giovanni Maciocia systematically describes the primary characteristics of the tongue and its significance in the clinic. Examination of the tongue is one of the principal diagnostic methods in Chinese medicine. This is the primary book on tongue diagnosis available in English.
Examination of the tongue, like the pulse, is one of the principal
diagnostic methods in traditional Chinese medicine. This book systematically describes each of the primary
characteristics of the tongue (body color, shape and coating) and their
significance in the clinic. It traces the historical development of
tongue diagnosis and its relationship to externally- contracted
disorders and the eight principals.
There are 59 color plates and accompanying case histories from the
author's own practice. Other aspects of tongue diagnosis described
in this edition include the integration of tongue and pulse diagnosis;
the use of the tongue in diagnosing emotional problems; tongue diagnosis
and herbal treatment; the tongue in prognosis; and special
considerations regarding tongue diagnosis in children.
