This major, new book is a complete, easily accessed and highly illustrated guide to diagnosis in Chinese Medicine. Emphasis is placed on "real world" issues and symptoms, and the text focuses on clear interpretations of signs and symptoms - the practice beyond the theory. Since Chinese medicine diagnosis relies on a subjective appraisal of the patientīs symptoms and signs - which form a pattern - many factors beyond traditional Western symptoms are taken into consideration e.g. a patientīs voice, the absence of thirst, feeling hot or cold, the patientīs smell, tone of voice, glitter of eyes. Thus, Chinese diagnosis is based on a subtle appraisal of a patientīs disharmony, which may not be a "disease" at all, and as such requires careful interpretation of a range of nuances. This book will help lead students and practitioners through basic on to sophisticated levels of diagnostic interpretation
