For beginners of Chinese medicine, if you want to learn Chinese medicine by yourself, my general order is the history of Chinese medicine - basic theory of Chinese medicine - Chinese medicine diagnostics - Chinese medicine - prescription science - Chinese medicine internal medicine. Although the quality of current textbooks is not high and is often criticized, at least the views are comprehensive and not extreme (there are many schools of traditional Chinese medicine, each with its own opinions and biases. If you start learning from a certain school, for example, learning from the beginning is now popular The Vulcan sect is easy to go astray). But you don’t have to read too deeply into the textbook itself, and you don’t have to spend too long at this stage. It doesn't matter if you don't understand some things temporarily. There is no need to delve into them. After entering the next stage of learning starting from typhoid fever, you will naturally start to understand many things.

The Chinese medicine books in my answer are all in the lower right corner of the picture. They basically include about 50,000 to 60,000 books on various categories of Chinese medicine, and they are all electronic versions

Some books are too shallow, such as "The Human Body User Manual" and "It is Better to Seek Medical Treatment than to Seek Yourself", and I have read these books. Many of the views are biased and not highly recommended.

Some books are too deep, such as "The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic", "Shen Nong's Materia Medica", and "The Source of the Four Sacred Hearts". They are all in classical Chinese, and many of the contents are difficult to understand literally.

The books I personally recommend are as follows: First read "The Road of Famous Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners", which is a summary of many Chinese medicine practitioners' learning process. Everyone's suggestions are different, but their experiences have many differences* **Same point,

Next, take a look at the fifth edition of "Basic Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine" edited by Professor Yin Huihe, which can be regarded as an overall framework for traditional Chinese medicine. Then take a look at "Sixteen Lectures on Clinical Pulseology", "Pinhu Pulseology", "Diagnostics of Traditional Chinese Medicine" and the tongue diagnosis atlas to have a systematic understanding of the diagnostic methods of traditional Chinese medicine.

Then you can briefly explore the classics, such as "The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic", "Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases", "Tiao Bian of Febrile Diseases", etc. However, it is still difficult to read them directly. , at this stage, you should start to study traditional Chinese medicine and prescriptions at the same time. It is not necessary to use university textbooks. You can also use the lecture series of famous teachers and famous experts of the People's Health Ministry, or some ancient Chinese medicine books, such as "Changsha Medical Solution". What needs to be particularly emphasized is that you cannot be lazy at this stage! ! ! What needs to be carried must be carried! ! There are no shortcuts! ! No discounts available! ! If you can’t remember the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine, the composition of prescriptions, or memorize the articles about typhoid fever, you’d better stop learning about this doctor as soon as possible! ! !

Finally, there are clinical disciplines, including but not limited to Traditional Chinese Medicine Internal Medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine Gynecology, Traditional Chinese Medicine Pediatrics, Traditional Chinese Medicine Orthopedics, etc. Likewise, it is not necessary to use textbooks, many ancient books are equally good. There are too many books that can be read at this stage, just to name a few: "Fu Qingzhu Women's Medicine", "Pediatric Medicine Zhijue", "Medicine Zhongshen Xilu", "Jingyue Complete Book", "Yizong Jinjian", "Spleen and Stomach Theory" ", and there are also a large number of clinical experience summaries and prescription collections, such as "Li Kerao Traditional Chinese Medicine Experience Album on Critical, Severe and Difficult Diseases" and "Zhao Shaoqin's 400 Clinical Methods". If you want to write them all, It's easy to write hundreds of books. But if you want to read them all, it is obviously more difficult. So at this stage, just dabble selectively according to your own interests and needs.

For these recommended Chinese medicine books, please look at the lower right corner of the Chinese medicine books in the picture. All Chinese medicine books have electronic versions.
