What do the conditions mean?

  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Used in Traditional Chinese Medicine Colleges and Universities internationally since 2007, TCM Foods, Cooking with the Five Elements, is a reference guide easy enough for the beginner to learn the Tao and its relation to food, and the practitioner to use.

For millennia, the Chinese have mapped the universe in terms of Qi and Yin Yang, and its relation to humans, this included food. The teachings have been passed down from practitioner to practitioner over the centuries, and a healthy diet and using foods in a certain practice are part of good health and healing.
