Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Chinese medicine persists in many parts of East and Southeast Asia. This persistence has meant the re-organisation of traditional Chinese medical practice. Institutional developments and adjustments observed among the traditional Chinese medical practitioners, the chung-i, have created diversity. Such diversity among the chung-i is evident by comparing not only the practices which are based in shops and those which are clinic-based but also the newer and older practices.
