“when i startet to study chinese herbal medicine in 2003 i must admit i felt totally lost among all the hundereds of herbs and prescriptions. desperately i wished for an overwiew, a tool that would not only help me to look through the huge jungle of information but also to understand the relationships between main prescriptions, associated prescriptions, and their crossreferences – and all of it preferably in a neat, nice, handy form. what began as a struggle and draft developed during a period of more than six years into a detailed “masterpiece” about prescriptions and possible modifications. 
i have been using this pocketguide now for years in my daily practice as a reference book, and it has proven to me it’s great utility when it comes to look up information, to find inspiration or confirmation of considerations. hence the idea to share this old traditional knowlegde in a modern digital fun way with you. i hope you will enjoy to be part of this community and benefit a lot from the tcm pocketguide.”
