Acupuncture theory in Huangdi Neijing and launching the natural history of body
Chinese traditional medicine is long in the natural history
which focuses on herbal medicine
but has less discussion on acupuncture. On the basis of exploring the body knowledge in
Huangdi Neijing
(
The Yellow Emperor

s Inner Canon
) from the perspective of the natural history
especially through the investigation of the evolution of acupoint knowledge
the route of the natural history of body in
Huangdi Neijing
have been detected in the aspects of observation
record
nomination and classification. In
Huangdi Neijing
the natural history of body is characterized by the object annotation
the interaction between the nature and things
and the practicability. Launching the natural history of body is of great significance to understanding the generation of classical body knowledge and constructing acupuncture theory.
