{"product_id":"the-art-of-longevity-and-han-chae-9791198973917","title":"The Art of Longevity and Well-Being: Translation of Jema Lee's Original Text into Contemporary Korean and English","description":"The \u003ci\u003eDong-Eui-Soo-Se-Bo-Won\u003c\/i\u003e is a book of bio-psychosocial theory and its clinical application written by Jema Lee, based on the Four Clues of Neo-Confucianism. It explains thorough theories and specific methods for maintaining a healthy body and a happy mind. Jema Lee (1837-1900) was a high-ranking official, soldier, and philosopher who experienced the turbulent late \u003ci\u003eJoseon\u003c\/i\u003e period in Korea. He was one of the scholars focusing on practical applications who empirically presented ways to directly apply Confucian values in the medical field.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDong-Eui-Soo-Se-Bo-Won\u003c\/i\u003e is divided into two main parts: the foundational theory section and the clinical application section. The foundational theory section consolidates the millennia-long understanding of humanity of Eastern Confucianism into a unique biopsychosocial theory, and the clinical application section critiques existing traditional East-Asian medicine, focusing on the use of acupuncture and herbal medicine. Despite the fame of his books and medical theories, very few records remain, and sociocultural changes over the past century have led to numerous misunderstandings about their academic significance and understanding, especially in the foundational theory section. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eThe Art of Longevity and Well-being, \u003c\/i\u003e\" which translates the foundational theory section of \u003ci\u003eDong-Eui-Soo-Se-Bo-Won\u003c\/i\u003e, is a book that addresses the needs experienced by the author from his doctoral thesis to the present in research, education, and academic presentations on Sasang typology. The following characteristics make this book suitable as a textbook for education, a basic material for research, and a bibliographic original in all fields of traditional Korean medicine, Korean studies, and integrative medicine.\u003cbr\u003eFirst, this book is written in contemporary Korean and English along with Lee Jema's original text, allowing general readers, clinicians, and academic researchers worldwide to read and understand it without prior knowledge. This perspective focuses on the practicality and expansiveness that Jema Lee desired.\u003cbr\u003eSecond, this book translates six chapters of the foundational theory section of \u003ci\u003eDong-Eui-Soo-Se-Bo-Won\u003c\/i\u003e along with one related chapter from the \u003ci\u003eHuangdi Neijing\u003c\/i\u003e. The author presents the biopsychosocial theories of Jema Lee on the unconscious psychological characteristics of Koreans with in-depth and rich understandings based on academic evidence from medical and psychological research that no one has ever dared.\u003cbr\u003eThird, existing studies show that Jema Lee's Sasang typology and Robert Cloninger's Biopsychosocial theory correspond to each other as a general theory and detailed theory, respectively. This book clearly demonstrates their complementarity based on an interesting synchronicity spanning over a hundred years and bridging East and West.\u003cbr\u003eThis book offers valuable insights into the traditional collective consciousness of Koreans regarding mind, body, life, and health. It serves as a useful and essential reference for scholars and researchers seeking a deeper understanding of Korean society, culture, and medicine, as well as Korean pop culture (\u003ci\u003eHallyu\u003c\/i\u003e). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eProfessor Han Chae, author of this book, is currently a professor at Pusan National University School of Korean Medicine, a licensed Korean medicine doctor, holder of a Ph.D. in Korean medicine, a debut essayist, and a Dipl.Ac with a passion for a wide range of academic interests and East-West integrative research.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Han Chae\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9791198973917\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Calmtree\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 196\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.42d","brand":"Han Chae","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47761281876223,"sku":"9791198973917","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fbca7a5b-05ca-4b5b-9aaa-0116b4989e05.jpg?v=1765514847","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-art-of-longevity-and-han-chae-9791198973917","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
