【Editor's recommendation】

☆Many authoritative experts reviewed and revised it after 2 years of hard work

After the first edition of "The Complete Works of Huangdi Neijing with Illustrations" was released, it received rave reviews and was loved by readers. However, because the book was too thick and difficult to read, and a small amount of content was difficult to understand, it was revised. Xiao Jianxi, a famous Chinese medicine expert, was specially invited to serve as the editor-in-chief for the revision, and many other Chinese medicine experts were invited to review and revise it. While retaining the essence of the previous version, the illustrations were continuously optimized, and it took two years of repeated consideration to finally be released.
