ESSENTIALS OF TIBETAN TRADITIONAL MEDICINE.
by Thinley Gyatso and Chris Hakim.
Tibetan Medicine is a rarified field with few publications in English; it is also one of the most comprehensive of alternative therapies, addressing body, mind, and spirit. Written for practitioners and advanced learners, Essentials of Tibetan Traditional Medicine brings this important healing tradition to the West.
The book begins by summarizing the basics of Tibetan medical theory and its methods of diagnosis. The second part of the book presents the core concepts of wind, bile, phlegm, dark phlegm, epidemic fever, heat, and cold, along with their corresponding nosologies, differential diagnoses, and treatments. The third section covers therapeutics, with an emphasis on medicinals—the mainstay of contemporary practice. A chapter on therapeutic strategies discusses unclear diagnosis, superimposed disorders, and other challenging clinical situations. Other chapters explore the crucial components of lifestyle and diet. Each of the 175 herbal, mineral, and animal products most commonly used in Tibetan medicine is profiled on its own page, with its Tibetan, common, and botanical names; its key properties and clinical uses; its known pharmacological properties; and a hand-drawn illustration. This useful handbook concludes with an in-depth analysis of some 60 frequently used herbal formulas, a description of accessory therapies such as moxibustion, and extensive appendixes and indexes.
"This book is the fruition of an ambitious project to present the essence of the ancient Tibetan medical system to a Western audience. The work combines a logical order and systematic presentation of the material with much detailed data not only on healing plants and herbs but also on a wide variety of food sources and spices. This book is valuable in breaking new ground so as to reveal more valuable knowledge of Tibetan medicine."—Dr. Barry Clark, translator of The Quintessence Tantras of Tibetan Medicine.
