520 $aAcupuncture in Clinical Practice is a comprehensive guide to the aetiology, differentiation and treatment of one hundred and twenty-five commonly seen diseases and disorders. Written clearly and practically, it will be of great benefit to all those interested in increasing their understanding and skills in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
520 8 $aIntended as a practical handbook for use by practitioners of acupuncture and other traditional non-drug therapies, this book is designed to assist in the differentiation of syndromes according to the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (considered to be one of the most difficult skills of TCM), as well as to enable the selection of correct points and appropriate treatment for each condition - thus allowing the practitioner to attain the most satisfactory clinical results.
520 8 $aMost books on Traditional Chinese Medicine are first written in Chinese and then translated into English. Acupuncture in Clinical Practice however, is a collaboration between a Chinese author proficient in both TCM and English, and an American English consultant proficient in Chinese. Dr Bai is both a lecturer and a practising acupuncturist, and has taught students from over twenty countries, including the United States of America, Sweden, Britain and Austria.
520 8 $aA great deal of the material presented in this book has not previously been published in English, and the author has managed to produce a text that successfully combines both the traditional and modern approaches. Although primarily intended as an advanced book for those who have already mastered the basic knowledge of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the practical and easy-to-use layout will also make it attractive to students and novice practitioners.
520 8 $aAcupuncture in Clinical Practice should be an essential purchase for any practitioner interested in this field.
