asked some practitioners in N America and they all told me they had the book. I

assume most serious listed members here have this book as well.

Hi Doug,

 

Thanks for reminding me. It is by Luo Xiwen, Beijing, New World Press 1995.

 

He quoted Chen Xiu yuan, a Qing medical scholar who said so and no diseases can

exceed the scope of six channel'. Does it still hold true today?

I personally do not believe this is true, but there are definitely SHL

enthusiasts who will say otherwise.

Chen is a talented scholar and I respected his viewpoint. His commentary was not

as frequently quoted as other commentators in contemporary textbooks of SHL &

JGYL though.

 

However, what contemporary tcm doctors need to focus most is clinical efficacy.

Warm Diseases WB and miscellaneous diseases studies have more solutions.
