Abstract

The edition of Zhong jing quan shu (Zhongjing's Complete Works) recorded in the China Bibliography of Medical Books is different from the one in the Supplement to China Bibliography of Medical Books. The version of Zhong jing quan shu collected in the library of China Medical University is the Zhao Kai-mei's version of the Ming dynasty, printed after the Song version in Supplement to China Bibliography of Medical Books. This book was formally collected by the Manchuria Medical University on 8 November, 1936 (the 10th years of Japanese Showa). In 1945, Manchuria Medical University was taken over by the government of Kuomintang, and changed its name to National Shenyang Medical College. The Ministry of Public Health of Northeast People's government took over it in 1948, and merged into the China Medical University in June, 1949 together with its numerous rare ancient TCM books. All of them were borrowed by Liaoning College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 1964. In March and April of 1970, these books were carried to Liaoyang, and then, to Shenyang in October. In 1978, the ancient books were retrieved by the China Medical University. Thus, the Zhao Kaimei's version of Ming dynasty of Zhongjing quan shu is preserved until today.
