Clinical commentary 臨床

Zhang Xi-chun's early-twentieth-century masterwork — minerals and shells hauling a runaway Yang back down while Useul leads the Blood after it. Written for the stroke that has not yet happened; that warning picture belongs first in the emergency room. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
