Review: TCM - This book is a minimal introduction to Traditional Chinese Medicine. Many parts repeat previous sections. While it is certainly true that TCM is a way of and philosophy of life, not enough attention is paid to the actual medical parts. The book would benefit from a more detailed description of how plants are used to create these medicines. Review: Get a different book - Not very informative and a terrible font to read. Waste of time and money
