While this book covers information that is of interest to TCM practitioners and lay people alike, it does so in a disorganized manner. One would think that a book on pulse diagnosis might start with describing the attributes of a pulse. Defining the terms used to describe the pulse would be a good place to start. Perhaps then one could go into how to take a pulse and what to look for. Unfortunately this book violates all standard pedagogical principles. Terms are used before they are defined. Circular definitions are used and information is presented in a redundant manner. While the information is interesting, the book should have been written in a much clearer fashion.

The book is a great start for the recent graduate of TCM. A much clearer picture of the pulses than the required text books.

I Realy enjoyed this book. It makes pulse diagnosis acceessible to anybody even without a lot of experience. Very clear and sharp distinctions are made between the different pulses. The writer shares his experience which realy helps.

I found this book very useful and I believe every practitioner of TCM should have it.

Very very good. I've wanted this book for some time. Glad to have it. It arrived promptly and in very good condition. Thanks. Wendy Fogg.
