Description
This comprehensive historical study examines the transformation of Chinese medicine during the Song dynasty (960-1127), a pivotal era that represents the second major turning point in medical development. The book traces how Song-era physicians integrated earlier medical theories and practices to create fundamental shifts in Chinese medical thought and practice. By analysing the changes that occurred during this crucial period, the work provides essential context for understanding how canonical theory from the Han dynasty evolved into the sophisticated medical systems that would later encounter Western medicine in the nineteenth century. Ideal for scholars of medical history, philosophy, and East Asian studies, this Routledge publication offers detailed insight into how the Song dynasty's intellectual and social transformations directly shaped the practice and theory of Chinese medicine.
