More than 1,000 basic TCM terms were selected for this book, and each of them was given a standard English translation. Careful analysis of the various English translations of a TCM term reveals the reason why a preferred translation was decided upon. It is expected that this book will have a great influence on internationalising and standardizing TCM nomenclature, and promoting the application and influence of TCM nomenclature worldwide.
