Treatise on Febrile Diseases (Shanghan Zabing Lun) was written by Zhang Zhongjing, the sage of Chinese medicine in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Assimilating from previous medicinal literature, and collecting many prescriptions elsewhere, Zhang finally wrote the medical masterpiece. Unfortunately, however, shortly after its publication, the book was lost during wartime. Giving a detailed account on how to diagnose and treat various diseases caused by internal organs, this book is meaningful in that it helped the development of clinical medicine many centuries later. The other work of Zhang is a compendium of his clinical experiences, called Synopsis from the Golden Cabinet (Jingui Yaolue) which is regarded as a highly influential doctrine.
