Chinese Natural Cures

A 1994 hardcover Chinese medicine book written by Henry C. Lu. Text designed by Alleycat Design, Inc., and cover design by Lindsay Wolff. Published by Tess Press and manufactured in China.

It provides an overview of Chinese medicine, a deeply rooted practice in ancient Chinese philosophy and culture. It has gained increasing attention in Western societies over the years and was published in English to support the spread of knowledge. The audience for this book would likely include individuals interested in alternative medicine, holistic health practices, and traditional Chinese culture. It may appeal to practitioners of Chinese medicine looking to expand their knowledge, as well as curious readers researching different healing techniques.

In terms of design, the layout and aesthetics, in particular, use traditional Chinese motifs, and images replicating traditionally drawn herbs, to evoke the cultural heritage associated with the practice.
