This study is about Cho Heon-yeong's 『Eastern Medicine Series (東洋醫學叢書)』. It consists of 5 clinical books, 『Therapy for People (民衆醫術理療法)』, 『Tuberculosis Eastern Medical Treatment (肺病漢方治療法)』, 『Neurasthenia Treatment (神經衰弱症治療法)』, 『Gastrointestinal Disease Treatment (胃腸病治療法)』 and 『Gynecological Treatment (婦人病治療法)』, which were published between 1935-1941. This series mainly succeeded 『Donguibogam (東醫寶鑑)』, and was influenced by 『Kyeongakjeonseo (景岳全書)』, and 『Hwangjenegyeong (黃帝內經)』. Cho Heon-yeong's medical philosophy appears in two ways. First, he emphasized invigoration in treatment for the people who lacked nutrition and medical care at the time. Second, eclecticism of Korean Medicine and Western medicine is specifically revealed through this series. He aimed for a comprehensive medicine that consists mainly of Korean medicine and includes only a part of Western medicine.
