Reader ReviewsEste libro posee una version mas nueva, todavia no traducida al Ingles. No obstante ello, posee referencias claras e interesantes pero se peca de excesiva simplicidad. Me explico, las preparaciones de la TCM en muy pocas ocasiones -tal como ocurre en el Ayurveda- se componen de la combinacion de dos sustancias (una excepción es Er Zhi Wan). Por ello, si bien es educativo tratar las combinaciones de pares, las referencias son muy sencillas. Un buen trabajo al respecto es "The Traditional Chinese Medicine Formula of Qiao Yi", conciso y claro. Recomendable para arrancar con el tema.
