Here's the list of the Jiao books now scheduled and a brief description of the

contents. We contracted the English language rights for these and one more

with Jiao directly thus he is working-on the project himself; Craig Mitchell

hopes to have him here next year. It will probably take six to eight years to

get

them all in print.

 

Ten Lectures on Personal Experience in the Use of Medicinals

(Yong Yao Xin De Shi Jiang)

 

In this text, Dr. Jiao discusses approximately 300 medicinal substances in

practical terms, gives the details of specific practical applications for each

medicinal, including representative formulas for a given function.

 

Ten Lectures on Personal Experience in the Use of Formulae

(Fang Ji Xin De Shi Jiang)

 

Each of 200 formulas is considered from a practical point of view with

substantial

information about the specific ingredients, classical and modern modifications,

signs

and symptoms. Dr. Jiao also compares and contrasts formula that have similar or

related functions so that the student or practitioner can better understand how

to

differentiate.

 

 

A Discussion of Pattern Identification and Treatment Determination Using

Case Studies (Cong Bing Li Tan Bian Zheng Lun Zhi)

 

This text uses a case study format to present and discuss fundamental theory,

specifically the concept of pattern identification and treatment determination.

 

A Summary of the Clinical Experience of Jiao Shu-De

(Jiao Shu-De Lin Chuang Jing Yan Ji Yao )

 

This book comes from a six-book set in which six of the most renowned doctors

of

Chinese medicine in all of China have an opportunity to put down on paper some

small

part of their medical experience.
