5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent overview of concepts of ChMed, November 6, 1999
By James F. Jones (Austin, TX) - See all my reviews
As a third year student/intern of Chinese Med., I have found it difficult to convey to my patients the basic concepts and approaches used in ChMed., often due to our 'western' habits of analysis. This book is a bridge of understanding, and I plan to offer it to all of my patients.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good summary of Traditional Chinese Medicine, December 27, 1998
By A Customer
This book provides a good overview of the foundations of traditional Chinese medicine and how it differs from Western medicine. A good place to start if you're trying to gain some perspective and/or an entry into alternative medicine and healing. Western trained physicians can benefit tremendously by understanding a completely different approach to healing. Highly recommended.
