我國傳統醫學四大經典著作是《黃帝內經》、《傷寒論》、《金匱要略》、《溫病條辨》，《黃帝內經》也是第一部冠以中華民族先祖“黃帝”之名的傳世鉅著，是我國醫學寶庫中現存成書最早的一部醫學典籍。是研究人的生理學、病理學、診斷學、治療原則和藥物學的醫學鉅著。《黃帝內經》包括《素問》八十一篇和《靈樞》八十一篇，各九卷。它分別從陰陽五行、天人相應、五運六氣、臟腑經絡、病機、診法、治則、鍼灸等方面，結合當時哲學和自然科學的成就，作出了比較系統的理論概括和認識。迄今在診治學上仍具有指導意義。不僅涉及醫學，而且包羅天文學、地理學、哲學、人類學、社會學、軍事學、數學、生態學等各項人類所獲的科學成就。令人頗感驚訝的是，中華先祖們在《內經》裏的一些深奧精闢的闡述，雖然早在2000年前，卻揭示了許多現代科學正試圖證實的與將要證實的成就。中國古代最著名的醫學家張仲景、華佗、孫思邈、李時珍等均深受《內經》思想的薰陶和影響，無不刻苦研讀之，深得其精要，而終成我國曆史上的一代名醫。
