Essentials of Traditional Chinese Pediatrics systematically explains the basics of traditional Chinese pediatrics, including the differentiation of syndromes and treatment of children's diseases. While Chinese herbal medicine is the main method of treatment, acupuncture and Chinese massage therapy are also discussed as methods to enhance therapeutic effects.

This book consists of two parts: "Basic Knowledge of Traditional Chinese Pediatrics" and "Treatment of Diseases". There is an appendix in which Chinese massage therapy for children is introduced. An index of selected formulas and patent medicines is also included.

Pediatricians of both Chinese and Western medicine and acupuncture and massage practitioners will find this book a highly useful reference.
