Publisher's Synopsis
This monograph is a full transcription and translation, from the original French and Chinese text, of an account by the distinguished sinologist Dabry de Thiersant in 1863, being the only significant European description of Chinese bovine & ovine medicine published before modern times. As such, it is of considerable historical importance to those interested in, or involved with, TCVM (Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine) as it applies to livestock. In it are described over 60 disorders and their symptomatic pictures, together with meticulous details of their treatment with traditional Chinese herbal medicines.
