The Database is a grass roots organization of

rs who are willing to pay a nominal subscription in order to

read never before translated texts. We use the subscriptions of our

users to fund every one of our translations. Translation of the

Classical texts is a vastly expensive project, and something that no one

person could afford to do alone. The philosophy behind the Chinese

Medicine Database is that together, as an organized international group,

we can afford to translate all of the source material from Chinese into

English. Currently, we are able to translate a piece of new translation

every month. As more and more people see the value of having access to

the Classical texts (our source material), we are able to increase the

amount of translation that we provide each month.

 

 

 

Sincerely,
