A Fabulous Exploration,
By William "Lapis" (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chi Kung: Energy for Life: An Introduction to the art of cultivating your energy (Paperback)
James MacRitchie is one of our gifted interpreters of the secrets of ancient China. This is his third book on Chi Kung - Qigong, the mother of Tai Chi. His exploration of the Qi (Chi) cultivation arts is assisted by 22 of the most impressive luminaries on this suject in the modern era -- Jahnke, Johnson, Garripoli, Winn, Weil, etc. MacRitchie's incredible crafting of his own writing, the writing of this impressive team of experts, the illustrations and photographs, creates one of the more definitive of the contemporary books on the subject of Qigong and its roots into the deep and rich soil of Chinese philosophy, medicine and culture.

What a book, what a guy!,

This review is from: Chi Kung: Energy for Life: An Introduction to the art of cultivating your energy (Paperback)
Being a student of the author, I am somewhat biased in my assessment of his book, but frankly, I think it's great. As a student of Chi Kung, I am always in search of resources from which to learn the art and then pass these resources onto others. I have to say that Jim's book is one of the most complete and clear that I've read, thanks to the array of contributions from leading practitioners. However, the jewel of this book is that underlying the entire work is Five Element theory, an extremely effective though lesser known approach to acupuncture than TCM. Five Element functions both as a basis for a healing art and as a profound approach to life. Enjoy the wealth.
