From Amazon.com:
โThis work makes Oriental Medicine, the medicine of the people, accessible to the reader. Over the past several thousand years, Oriental Medicine has developed into the most comprehensive medical system on the planet, initially passed on via oral tradition and then written word. This work is a humble translation of ancient Chinese medical theory into layman s contemporary English terminology. This work is not a complex text laden with medical terminology for use by medical and/or scientific academics who scour materials in search of what doesnโt work; rather it is a work based upon: 1. the truths of Oriental Medicine as outlined in many texts used to train Acupuncture professionals, and 2. experience with 1000 s of patients and their reality. This book is intended as a reference for use by: patients curious about Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, and/or Acupuncturists who would like to offer their patients an understandable explanation of their particular symptom(s) prior to beginning care.โ
