Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Traditional Chinese medicine halls are the most fundamental components of the prepared Chinese medicine industry, while medicine catalogs (or formularies) constitute important historical records documenting the development of these halls and hold significant documentary value. This book is a compilation and collation of medicinal catalogs from traditional Chinese medicine halls. It focuses primarily on well-known time-honored medicine halls in the Beijing area. The catalogs included are mostly complete editions and rare editions from the Republican period (1912-1949), which document more comprehensive lists of medicinals and thus hold greater research value. The specific medicinal catalogs included are eight in total: Tongrentang Medicinal Catalog, Beijing Wanquantong Lijia Laopu Price List of Pills, Powders, Ointments, and Pellets, Beijing Changchuntang Medicinal Catalog, Beiping Qianzhitang Laoyaopu Price List of Pills, Powders, Ointments, and Pellets, Nanqingrentang Price List of Ginseng, Antler, Liquors, Tinctures, Pills, Powders, Ointments, and Pellets, Beiping Xiheniantang Price List of Ginseng, Antler, Liquors, Tinctures, Pills, Powders, Ointments, and Pellets, Beiping Deshoutang Nanhao Price List of Ginseng, Antler, Liquors, Tinctures, Pills, Powders, Ointments, and Pellets, and Beiping Yongantang Price List of Ginseng, Antler, Liquors, Tinctures, Pills, Powders, Ointments, and Pellets. This book compiles the catalogs of prepared medicines sold by traditional Chinese medicine halls-essentially the publicly distributed drug instructions and promotional pamphlets of these establishments. Its content includes three main aspects: First, an introduction to the medicine halls themselves, including their founding histories, development, key figures, and major transformative events. Second, information on the editions of the catalogs, drawing on historical sources and prefaces to explain the background of compilation and the authors. Third, the specific content of the catalogs, including prefaces, illustrations, practice licenses, tables of contents, quantities of prepared medicines listed, characteristics of those preparations, features of ginseng and antler slices, and distinctive business models, among other TCM and historical-documentary content. This volume adopts a facsimile and comparative format: either with images above and explanatory text below, with the transcribed text presented in simplified characters in horizontal layout to facilitate reading and research. The writing and publication of this book carry forward the historical transformations of traditional Chinese medicine halls. As a bridge connecting these establishments and their prepared medicines, it possesses academic value for the study of prepared Chinese medicines and for the study of Chinese medicinal culture. This book may serve as a reference for professionals and researchers in fields such as Chinese medical history and literature, Chinese materia medica, formulary studies, TCM culture, and the TCM cultural industry. 8 Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
