Infos

Seven years in the making, Dr. Zhongs Pediatric
Essentials opens with an introduction to the
history of pediatric applications of Chinese
medicine techniques, going back to 168 BCE.
The author discusses how childrens physiology
differs from adult physiology, and notes the
unique aspects of the onset, types, and evolution
of disease in pediatric medicine.
The author offers useful, complete descriptions
of physical examination, diagnosis,
and treatment strategies for the various organ
systems from newborns through adolescents.
Separate chapters cover infectious diseases, parasitosis,
and a dozen specific syndromes such
as profuse sweating, night crying, and growth
disorders. In each example, detailed diagnostic
guidelines are accompanied by a description of
the therapeutic principle governing treatment
and a list of specific TCM formulas, including
herbs, Tui Na, moxibustion, and acupuncture,
as well as advice about prevention and use of
patent medicines.
Dr. Zhong has been learning, practicing,
researching, and teaching traditional Chinese
medicine pediatrics for three decades. His unique
work will be useful as a complete reference to aid
clinicians in formulating a plan from diagnosis
to treatment, as well as a textbook for students
of pediatric TCM.
