Based on Classical texts with modern translations and Solos's decades of experience, it provides practical and accessible guidance on how to recognise and manage modern diseases through tongue diagnosis.

Firmly rooted in the classical sources of a major diagnostic method in Chinese Medicine, this essential resource responds to the growing need for clear and practical guidance on applying tongue diagnosis in the modern clinical setting. This need is further highlighted in anticipation of the post-antibiotic era, marking increased epidemic risk.

Ioannis Solos draws on decades of clinical expertise and experience, all of which is supplemented with color illustrations, charts, and tables.
