Examination of the tongue, like the pulse, is one of the principal diagnostic methods in traditional Chinese medicine. This book is a thorough, clinically oriented exposition of tongue diagnosis by one of the most respected teachers and practitioners of Chinese medicine in the West.

Each of the major aspects of the tongue – body color, shape and coating – and its relationship to the diagnostic process is systematically described. The book also traces the historical development of tongue diagnosis and its role in the evolution of traditional Chinese medical theory and practice.

Featured in this new third edition are 175 color plates selected from the author’s practice which vividly illustrate many of the types of tongues that are commonly found in the Western clinic. Accompanying many of the plates are dozens of case histories which illustrate the application of the principles of tongue diagnosis in actual practice.

Other aspects of tongue diagnosis described in this third edition include the integration of tongue and pulse diagnosis; the use of the tongue in diagnosing emotional problems; tongue diagnosis and herbal therapy; using the tongue for prognosis; and special considerations regarding tongue diagnosis in children. Appendices provide a summary of traditional principles governing identification of disease patterns (six stages, four levels, three burners) and their relationship to tongue characteristics.

A glossary of technical terms, bibliography and detailed index are also included.

“A clear, precise and accurate description of this important pillar of Chinese medical examination.” —From the Foreword by Ted Kaptchuk

Did not work for my skin
I ordered this for a more natural at home remedy for my eczema but it did not work. Even after seeing a dermatologist and healing my eczema using this product did not help my skin sadly.

Great Item! Performs better than any higher priced name brand foaming soap!
Scent: Mango, Size: 64 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
One thing I don't like about foaming hand soap is when it doesn't foam. I mean c'mon, the title of the product says foaming, so it should, foam! I've tried numerous brands of foaming soap for my dispenser and I always thought my dispenser was the issue because the soap would never come out with a good lathering foam. Well, I finally found a product, and surprisingly a brand I'm unfamiliar with or ever seen in the stores that in my opinion has far exceeded my expectations when it comes to foaming hand soap. The foaming pump dispenses just the right amount without going overboard, and it makes the product last forever. I work a lot in a job where I am in constant need to wash my hands constantly so I go through tons of soap! I love that I don't have to spend a fortune, and the mango scent is really nice without being to overbearing. It lathers well, rinses well and makes my hands clean. It is a half gallon but trust me, as someone who washes their hands very often, more often actually, that it lasts long. I'm looking forward to trying the other scents from this brand. Oh, and it does make your hands smell as nice as the mango scent too which is a pleasant bonus. All in all, I'm satisficed with this foaming hand soap and pretty much have found my new favorite brand without costing me an arm and leg for something that may or may not foam well.

Great foaming hand soap.
Scent: Coconut, Size: 64 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Love this soap refill. Smells amazing and rinses easily without residue. Leaves my hands soft. It foams to the last drop too. The big bottle lasts a long time.

Good hand soap
Scent: Coconut, Size: 64 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is a fragrant, good foaming hand soap. I have sensitive skin and it doesnt bother me, plus you can get multiple uses out of it due to it being just the liquid. I gave it 4 stars because it meets all the requirements however I do think its pretty expensive for a half gallon. The seller could do better on pricing affordability but other than that- it came on time and is a good scent (wish they had more to select from). This is my second time buying from this seller and each experience has been good overall. Would reccomend.
