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

It was ok.
Size: (Pack of 1)
The product installed fine and the price was good. However, it took too long to arrive. I don't know why it took almost three weeks to get to my house. I was about to cancel the order.

I really like these filters. This is the brand I try to use, unless they're unavailable. Fast shipping and a great product. Easy to install. Great value for the money. Not driving it is the only thing that helps the gas mileage. Shipped by Amazon. Box damaged during shipping. The air filter was placed in the bottom of the box and 5 lbs of honey, 1 case (12 cans) of sardines and another item were placed on top of the air filter inside the box. The 5 lbs of honey is in a plastic 1/2 gallon bottle with bubble wrap tapped around the lid/cap. All items ship from Amazon. There was NO padding or filler in the box. Fortunately, none of the 4 items were not damaged or covered in honey. This has become a very serious issue with Amazon orders. This isn't the 1st time I've received my order and the box was as about to come apart. If I have to return something to Amazon, it's about a 75 mile round trip to the nearest UPS store. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!

Great quality. Worth a few bucks more
Size: (Pack of 1)
My 2004 Ram baby deserves the best especially when it’s like 5 bucks more for a good quality air filter that’s gonna be on the truck for 30/40 k miles. Don’t replace every 15K, that’s quick lube sales talk.. only if you live in a dust bowl.
