Nourishing Practitioners by Nourishing Destiny,
By A Customer
This review is from: Nourishing Destiny: The Inner Tradition of Chinese Medicine (Hardcover)
Lonny Jarrett is one of the few authors who provides a complete analysis of the five elements that can be applied to everyday practice. I found as I read his book, which I did several times, various patients came to mind (others were not so clear...). Patients also related to the descriptions of the five elements as it affected their lives. The approach provided me with the extra information I needed to better treat an energy imbalance, rather than symptoms alone. The way Lonny combines the things we learn, the way we interpret the world, and the make up we bring to it, was practical and applicable. He seems to be more from the Worsley school with its emphasis on the psychological rather than the cosmological school. If more books like Lonny's come to print, I believe Western Chinese Medicine will really have come of age.

Superb, unusual, and thought-provoking,

This review is from: Nourishing Destiny: The Inner Tradition of Chinese Medicine (Hardcover)
This book is genuinely eye-opening. It is an advanced text focusing on five-phase acupuncture models. It discusses various phase types, and also utilizes case studies to clarify his perspective. It is highly psycho-emotionally oriented, and therefore useful to add to the more standard library of acupuncturists. Along with Jeremy Ross' book, I use this book most frequently.

This review is from: Nourishing Destiny: The Inner Tradition of Chinese Medicine (Hardcover)
The list price for this book is only $75. People have a lot of nerve selling their used copies for $125. You can order this directly from Lonny Jarrett's website for $90.
