Sivin devotes the first half of his book to an interpretive exploration of the history of classical Chinese medicine, outlining in detail the evolution of its essential concepts from ancient times through the present. The second half consists of translations from the Revised Outline of Chinese Medicine (1972), a textbook compiled in China for use by modern physicians.
