Review
Being a fourth-generation practitioner of TCM with 40 years of clinical experience, as well as being a Master of Qigong and director of the TCM Research Institute wherein my duties include teaching Chinese medicine to medical professionals worldwide, I deeply believe that this book, Biomedical Acupuncture for Pain Management: An Integrative Approach, is a milestone on the road toward integration of acupuncture into mainstream medicine and that it will open the door of acupuncture therapy to Western healthcare professionals.

This book is an indispensable guide to effectively incorporating acupuncture into any modern medical practice. The INMAS system is understandable and a brilliant distillation of this complex ancient healing art. I strongly endorse this innovative and practical textbook for all physicians who deal with neuromuscular symptoms.

Some pages have some underlining/notes mainly in first couple of chapters. See images. About the book >.>.> A scientific theory or hypothesis contains two components: empirical facts and an explanation of these facts. The empirical facts can be referred to metaphorically as valuable pearls, with the explanation of these facts taking the role of the string. The basic form of scientific advancement can be seen as a contin- uous process of changing the string while preserving the pearls, and the "channel" theory is no exception: In "Channel" theory, however, the pearls and string are tightly tangled together and are difficult to dif- ferentiate. This perplexity leads to the situation that no one has been able to clarify what "channels" are, despite the fact that modern research on this question has been continuing for more than four decades. One study shows that students who have modern medical backgrounds, Chinese and foreign alike, are not able to understand what the "channels" really mean. To understand the value in the "Channel" theory, it is crucial to separate the valuable. Seller Inventory # Batch-FM319-G-7851
