Book Reviews of Acupuncture: A Comprehensive Text

Book Review: Great "all around" Book....
Summary: 4 Stars

This book is great for a "overall review".

Do not use this book alone however, I would use it WITH the required books from school.

Like most books, 70-80% of the book is the same/similar to the others, however that 20%+ can make a difference and sometimes even help you "click" and understand a concept or lesson.

Good luck!

Summary of Acupuncture: A Comprehensive Text

Compiled by the faculty of one of China's leading schools of traditional medicine, Acupuncture: A Comprehensive Text is among the most authoritative textbooks and reference sources in its field. Since its translation into English in 1981, it has become a standard text used throughout the world.

Included are descriptions of more than a thousand acupuncture points, hundreds of prescriptions (both ancient and modern) for the treatment of numerous diseases, and detailed discussion of a variety of acupuncture techniques and modalities ranging from ear, head, hand and foot acupuncture to moxibustion, cupping and surgical techniques.

There are chapters devoted to modern research concerning acupuncture phenomena, and others which critically analyze ancient theory and methodology. The editors have also provided a lengthy introduction to the principles of traditional Chinese medicine, a select bibliography of current research published in English, and extensive indices.
