出版社:中国科学技术出版社 2014-3-1
简介: 医学在古代中国作为“仁政”之学,受到宋代皇帝和政府的高度重视。宋代政府发展医学的政策、措施和实施的医学活动,主要通过医事诏令的形式体现出来。医事诏令的制定、决策、发布与执行,体现了宋代国家的意志与需要。本书以宋代皇帝发布的医事诏令为研究对象,深入探讨政府治理与医学发展之间的关系。 宋代政府对医学采取了积极扶持和重点发展的态度,先后发布了2813条医事诏令,不仅数量庞大,而且内容丰富。宋政府组织实施的医学活动,主要有前代医学文献的校定,新医学著作的编撰,针灸铜人的研发与铸造,重大传染性疫病的应对,成药的生产与买卖,海外香药的输入与管理,医学机构的建立与管理,医学教育的分科与改革,医官的选任与磨勘,运气学理论的阐发与应用,以及巫医的控制与改造等。医事诏令不仅成为宋代政府发展医学的法律保障和政策依据,而且极大地促进了10—13世纪中国医学的进步、创新和发展。宋代皇帝和政府在医学发展中,发挥了政策制定者、组织实施者和成效管理者的角色,在中医基础理论、中医文献学、中医传染病学、中医临床学、中医方剂学、中医教育学、中兽医学以及医学管理等方面取得了突出的成就。 本书以科学社会史的研究理论与方法,探讨了医事诏令中所反映的与国家“仁政”思想和正统政治密切相关的医学,在宋代政府的支持与治理下是如何得到发展的。不仅丰富了科学史研究的视野,而且也拓展了医学史研究的内容,具有较强的借鉴意义。 Abstract InancientChina,medicinewasregardedasakindofbenevolentgovernanceandreceivedseriousattentionfromemperorsandgovernments.Themainmeansofdevelopingmedicinewasembodiedinmedicalimperialedicts,whoseformulation,releaseandexecutionreflectedthewillandchoiceofthecountry.ThebooktakesSongdynasty’smedicalimperialedictsastheresearchobjecttodiscussthepolicy,measurementandachievementofthegovernmentinmedicalaspect.
