JCM Review
"This book was written for those who practice Traditional Chinese Medicine and for anyone studying for certification. It is also a valuable reference for physicians and other health professionals with an interest in learning more about acupuncture and its basic theory. [This book] should also become a required text for acupuncture students...well-referenced and the organization of the material is unique and well suited for learning." --Doody's Book Review<br><br>"The colorful illustrations and diagrams and clear photographs caught my attention. The appealing layout throughout makes it an ideal quick reference for locating acupuncture points or reviewing basic TCM theory. For easier learning the major points are grouped by topographical area, again with clear anatomical illustrations. A CD-ROM that makes an excellent quick reference tool with similar photographs and anatomical illustrations of point location accompanies [the book]. The section on diagnosis and treatment of interal disease provides useful treatment strategies, with point selection, combinations and needling methods. ..Its strength lies in its presentation, with large color diagrams, logical tables and flow charts...appealing for its logical and well-illustrated overview of TCM theory and pattern differentiation."
