Introduction to the 10 Key Formula Families
We should see The 10 Key Formula Families out in print sometime in March. I am hoping you will find it as interesting to read, as I found it to translate. More importantly, I trust it will give you another lens to focus clinical reality.
Dr. Huang’s emphasis on constitutional types and herb presentations is a useful clinical tool that helps us to navigate the at times confusing world of herbal medicine.

Thanks!…can’t wait
hi, im so glad to hear about your ebook. i have been hearing a lot about dr huang lately and have the chinese versions of his 50 flavors and 10 types books. the reading is a bit slow but very interesting. when i first took a look at 10 types i thought ‘what a great translation project this would be, different, interesting, useful, and slender, i wonder if anyone is working on it?’ and here you are, i look forward to checking out your site and your translation. take care and thanks for the ebook, -alex
Yes, I thought the same thing, “nice slim book, it would be fun to translate.” It was, but Chinese has a way of expanding when noodled into English, so the English edition will be a bit thicker.
Hope you enjoy the eBook, and The 10 Key Formula Families when it comes out next month.

Any firm date on the 10 Key Formula Families book publication?
The book is being typeset at this time. We are looking at late May or early June.
I have the book in front of me… congrats. From layout to content it looks and reads wonderfully. It should be as an important contribution to the English language CM library. I can see that this book will mark a big change and improvement to how (my) herbal formulas are written.
