Books about Chinese herbal formulas

Chinese formulas and their strategies and applications are in this section. These Chinese formulas handbooks are selected books which show which selection of herbs is used for which diseases.

From our experience the best Chinese herbal books are Bensky´s formulas and strategies and Chen´s pharmacology Vol.2. Both have excellent information about the classic formulas and contraindications. Tons of indices show where you can find the classical formulas in the old books. Top selections of worldwide available formulas. Chen has better pictures (photos) and chemical information, Bensky has more historical information. Both are best of a modern TCM practice.
