Iona MacDonald is a medical writer trained in Western medicine and scientific research. Working in a medical research university in Taiwan exposed Iona to the healing capabilities of traditional Chinese medicine. The case reports in this book were shared with Iona by Taiwanese doctors who integrate traditional Chinese and Western medicine in their clinical practice and daily life. These case reports describe ways in which Chinese medicine (alone or combined with Western medicine) can effectively cope with different medical conditions that Western medicine alone cannot easily treat (or even at all). This book is her tribute to researchers and clinicians dedicated to the practice of Chinese medicine in Taiwan. Iona hopes that by sharing their work and approaches to healing, this book will give people insights into how they can use this ancient form of healing to promote a state of physical, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being.
