Description: "The book identifies intricate human dimensions of Traditional Chinese Medicine in: the life stages of youth, adulthood and old age, as family connections, as identity, as balancing /harmonising life, as complementary and knowledge transmission roles. In particular, Traditional Chinese Medicine is seen through the lens of leadership - as refining human relationships, as self, as moral practice, as good management practice, and as embracing the cultural environment. Underlying these categories, shared meanings are revealed, as well as core values and health beliefs in Chinese culture. The complex human dimensions of Traditional Chinese Medicine are shown to be deeply rooted in social, cultural and historical contexts in the Chinese diaspora."--Publisher.
