That is completely BS. I have spent the last year and a half reading 9 different Materia Medicas in Chinese, and they ALL use hua jing and yi jing on a regular basis.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 Side note to the side note: The California state board (or whatever replaces it) has just adapted the Practical Dictionary as a required source text for the state boards.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 Despite my issues with it, I think this is great as it will definetely " up the ante " as to the level of TCM taught in the California schools.
