This timely and useful handbook contains concise summaries of acupuncture and moxibustion therapies. It includes discussions of basic theory, channels, points, pathogenesis, diagnostic methods, pattern identification, and treatment techniques-the information necessary for class preparation or quick clinical review. A major portion of the text is in graphic tables to reinforce comprehension and aid memorization. The information is presented in pattern sequences that clearly and succinctly describe the concept or treatment. Similarities or differences that go unrecognized in other presentation styles are quickly accessible with this user-friendly technique. This first volume is often used by students preparing for their exams. The "note card" format makes self-testing easy.
All terms have been carefully cross-referenced to popular texts. Classical Chinese five-phase acupuncture techniques, previously unavailable in English, are included. Practical and free of theoretical or clinical bias, this book offers a compilation of unsurpassed value as a review and as a ready reference, giving the reader easy access to a vast body of practical and theoretical knowledge.

Softcover. Condition: Very Good. Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Nice book in great condition. Pages in excellent condition. No notes or highlighting. See images. Fantastic book. About the book >.>.> As universal in scope and sparkling with insights as are the fundamental principles of Oriental medicine, there is, lurking in the background of every Oriental medical student's experience, a sobering reality. The bewildering array of detail that gives form to these principles must, at some point, be memorized, organized, and applied. Sooner or later, in the classroom, for licensure, or in the clinic, the tests will begin to appear. Students of Oriental medicine share this woe with students of all other disciplines. However, unlike other students, Western students of Oriental medicine have not had the advantage of review texts and study guides to help them in their times of trial. For many, even a good compilation would have been a book to cherish. Though lamentable, this situation has been understandable. The Oriental medical profession in the West hadn't settled down long enough for an effective compilation to be undertaken, and publishers have been largely preoccupied with the steady stream of new works.
