[The reasons of over-interpretation during the research of TCM academic history.].
Over-interpretation refers to the excessive understanding, translation and explanation of the implications which the research object represents. TCM academic history is a branch of medicine historiography to study the TCM academic development and evolution. Uncertainty of historical materials, incomplete expression of the author's original meaning and deviation of the scholars' interpretation often lead to over-interpretation during the research of TCM academic history.
