The Pulse Classic, also known as Mai Jing, was written in the West Jin Dynasty by Wang Shuhe, in which he described the pulse positions, methods, and established 24 different kinds of pulse. This work allowed future generations to grasp the essence of pulse in an instance, as well as understand the different pulse phenomena with every illness. It is the first book in the Chinese medical literature entirely devoted to pulse diagnosis. As such, it is the undeniable and necessary foundation text for anyone seriously interested in understanding the rationale for and method of reading the pulse in Chinese medicine.
