This book is a must-have for anyone interested in the Chinese medical treatment of psycho-emotional diseases.

You’ll learn the disease causes and mechanisms, pattern discrimination, treatment principles, and Chinese medicinal and acupuncture-moxibustion treatment of more than 20 traditional Chinese psychiatric diseases—as well as the same information on the Chinese medical treatment of most major Western psychiatric diseases. Each chapter also includes the Western medical nosology, etiology, differential diagnosis, pathophysiology, epidemiology, treatment, side effects, and criteria for referral written by Dr. Lake.

Also included: abstracts of recent Chinese and Western research, case histories, Sun Si-miao’s 13 ghost points, a psychiatric disease point repertoire, a psychiatric disease acupuncture formulary, a psychiatric disease materia medica, and a psychiatric disease formulary.
