• not what I expected....
  I'm an acupuncture student and was looking for a more in depth discussion of the mystical aspect of acupuncture...The title is beautiful and implies insight into the spiritual and alchemical aspects of acupuncture, yet it does not do that. Instead we are given case histories and few acupuncture points used, but no background info as to why those points were chosen. There was nothing alchemical or spiritual about the book. Although it does give a good example of the interview process of the patient.

• A Must Read for All in the Field of Chinese Medicine!
  Excellent! A must for Chinese Medicine practitioners.

• Artfully comprehensive
  Ms. Dechar has been able to weave the Chinese characters and the meaning behind the words of Oriental Medicine, showing the depth of health care even 3 thousand years ago.
  The book is very comprehensive and should be regarded as a resource to return to, time after time.
  I am enjoying the beauty of the words and the medicine very much.
