Basic Theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine (International Acupuncture Textbooks)

Good book Ill need to read again to understand better as it assigns Earth, Wind, Fire, Water, Ying, Yang etc.

Easy to read and understand, it is very clear, looking forward to getting through it all

Excellent books packed full of benificial information, and very to the point with useful information to the purpose and influences to the creation of the book. Nicely laid out to learn and make notes. I would recommend this book I have learnt so much from it , I will also be purchasing books from same author.

Short, clear, understandable and exactly what needed. Highly recommend for any students and everyone who is ‘fed-up’ with ‘strange’ language and needs understanding (not only producing strange meaningless phrases of terms)

this is an excellent book - a bit advanced for the average reader; for someone serious about training in acupuncture it should be part of their reading list.

A well put together book, especially useful if you are studying acupuncture.

I couldn’t get my head around this book. The constant repeating of the same phrases and there opposites is enough to drive anyone loopy. It’s practically unreadable.

Great book

This book is amazing to help you study and learn more about the meridians!

A brief reference to history in the early dynasties paved the way for due diligence and understanding of the text.The text was simple without jargon and assured the whole gave meaning to the parts for instance "Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) views the human body as an organic whole" and "the various parts of the body are inseparable in structure...". All parts of the body include the six Fu organs." With the human body and nature; seasonal and climatic influence on the body, day and night, geographical, hence treatment is based a differentiation of syndromes. Herbal drugs can be selected to relieve the external symptoms. Throughout the content concepts are explained thus giving a richness to the theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Very comprehensive and informative book on the topic. It provides a good basis of knowledge of TCM, it covers the basics with exceeding expectations.

I take forever to read but so far, amazing! Puts a lot of pieces I've picked up in other texts together in an easy to digest way (grateful). Even the complex stuff isnt overwhelming because of the book's thoughtful layout. Definitely recommend

Great book to understand the Traditional Chinese Medicine Basics.
