Essential Prescriptions from the Golden Cabinet is a classic clinical book of traditional Chinese medicine written by Zhang Zhongjing (150-219) at the end of the Eastern Han dynasty and was first published in the Northern Song dynasty. The oldest known extant copy, believed to be bibliographically closest to the original, dates to 1340 and was printed with woodcuts in the early Ming dynasty.
Zhang Zhongjing, was a Chinese physician, writer and inventor of the Eastern Han dynasty and one of the most eminent Chinese physicians during the later years of the Han dynasty. He established medication principles and summed up the medicinal experience until that time, thus making a great contribution to the development of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
刘希茹、李照国编译的《金匮要略(共2册汉英对照)(精)》源自医圣张仲景所著的《伤寒杂病论》。《伤寒杂病论》是我国历史上第一部理论与实践相结合的中医典籍,从而构建了中国的临床医学。东汉末年战乱,《伤寒杂病论》散佚。后经晋代王叔和及宋代王洙和林亿的整理,将《伤寒杂病论》编辑成《金匮要略》和《伤寒论》两书。在传统版本的基础上,根据现代医家的研究、整理和释义,结合中医基本名词术语国际标准化的发展,参照中医英译国际发展的特点和风格,比较完整系统地将其译为英文,尤其注重其基本概念、术语和方药的准确解读和释义,努力探索中医典籍国际传播的路径和渠道,供国内外从事中医学习、研究、传播和翻译的学者参考。
