摘要
This paper discusses the present state of Tra- ditional Chinese Medicine being divided into three leading lines of thought, namely, the Clinical line, the Integration of Western and Chinese Medicine line and the Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine line. It also describes the position of Tra- ditional Chinese Medicine being a medical science rich in philosophy and wisdom and a culture centred upon medical science and technology. It outlines the basic characteristic of Traditional Chinese Medicine being rooted in the ’ Holistic Theory’ and ’ Syndrome Differentiation and Treatment ’ and pointed out various flaws in methodology in Integra- tion of Western and Chinese Medicine research. It also stresses that in order to make fruitful progress in the development of Traditional Chinese Medicine, multi-discipline research in Traditional Chinese Medicine should be made on a thoroughly under- standing of the basic methodology of Traditional Chi- nese Medicine and follow its established principles.
