Описание: Drawing upon a rich archive, Brock explores the cultural, social and self-representation of the woman surgeon in Britain from 1860 to the end of the Great War. This book is essential reading for those interested in medical history, providing wide-ranging new perspectives on the history of women, patient narratives and the history of surgery. This title is also available as Open Access.
This book is a guide on how to fulfill our most basic human role of harmonizing Heaven and Earth from the perspective of classical Chinese medicine, offering a radically different way of looking at, being in, and interacting with the world from the perspective of ancient Chinese medicine, philosophy, and cosmology. Dr. Wilms combines her elegant literal translations with a wide selection of medical commentaries and quotations from philosophical and cosmological texts, as well as her personal insights, based on three decades of sinological scholarship and many years of teaching Chinese medicine students. Intended as an introduction to authentic classical Chinese medicine and philosophy, it aims to translate ancient Asian wisdom on living in harmony with the universe for contemporary readers.
Sh n N ng Běncǎo Jīng: The Divine Farmer's Classic of Materia Medica
This long-awaited English translation and critical edition of The Divine Farmer's Classic of Materia Medica by well-known medical historian and translator Dr. Sabine Wilms is a product of her triple engagement with the worlds of applied Chinese medicine, academic sinology, and sustainable agriculture. The 365 substances covered are categorized in three books, associated with Heaven, Humanity, and Earth respectively. Coming from the perspective of alchemy and the pursuit of health and longevity, treating disease and expelling pathogens by ingesting substances that have a strong directly-discernible effect on the body is viewed as the lowest goal. By contrast, the higher-ranked medicinals often have no discernible effect when ingested, but especially when taken over long periods of time have such ambitious and intangible goals as connecting the human spirit to heaven, lightening the body, or staving off aging. The information contained in this book and the vision of the world and of the effect of natural substances on the human body expressed here are bound to inspire any practitioner of the Chinese art of yǎngshēng 養生 ("nurturing life").
In the heyday of classical Chinese gynecology roughly eight centuries ago, Q Zh ngfǔ 齊仲甫 composed a humbly named masterpiece, to address his students', colleagues', and patients' "Hundred Questions on Gynecology." Quoting and discussing all the major theories and treatments found in earlier gynecological texts, the Chinese original of this book must have been as useful to his S ng dynasty readers as this modern English translation will be for any practitioner of Chinese gynecology today. One of the eminent translators of Chinese medical literature, Dr. Sabine Wilms has once again crafted a meticulously researched, lovingly phrased, and abundantly annotated translation in an attractive and accessible edition that is sure to inspire our clinical colleagues and set a new bar for the clinical practice of traditional Chinese gynecology in the West. Features: - Preface and clinical notes by Sharon Weizenbaum; - Detailed historical introduction, surveying the origins of gynecology in China and summarizing earlier texts; - Literal translation of Questions 1-14 in Q Zh ngfǔ's 齊仲甫 Nǚ Kē Bǎi W n 《女科百問》 ("Hundred Questions on Gynecology," published in 1220 CE) on theoretical foundations and menstrual conditions, with the Chinese text side-by-side with the English translation; - Extensive commentaries by Sabine Wilms on the essays and formulas, to discuss treatment strategies, related formulas, textual variants, grammatical issues, historical developments, technical terms, and contemporary relevance, and include abundant quotations from relevant medical texts, with Chinese sources for important passages; - Lists of primary sources and secondary references; - Character-Pinyin-English cross-listed tables for formulas and medicinal ingredients, in alphabetical order of Pinyin to English and of English to Pinyin; - General index. - Beautifully illustrated throughout with photographs of the author's home on Whidbey Island.
