The work is composed of two texts each of eighty-one chapters or treatises in a question-and-answer format between the mythical Huangdi (Yellow Emperor or more correctly Yellow Thearch) and six of his equally legendary ministers.
这本著作由两部分组成,共81章,是以提问和回答的形式编写而成的。

The first text, the Suwen, also known as Basic Questions, covers the theoretical foundation of Chinese Medicine and its diagnostic methods.
第一本,素问,涵盖了中医药及诊断方法的理论基础。
The second and generally less referred-to text, the Lingshu, discusses acupuncture therapy in great detail. Collectively, these two texts are known as the Neijing or Huangdi Neijing.
第二本,一般较少提及到文本,灵枢,详细论述了针灸治疗。总的来说,这两个文本被称为内经或黄帝内经。
In practice, however, the title Neijing often refers only to the more influential Suwen.其实,内经通常只包含了更有影响力的素问。 |
