I brought this booklet to acupuncture school and compared it with the other Atlas of acupuncture, the other students had. We all wanted all the information that all the atlas have, on a single booklet. All the acu. pts. plus TTP, ear pts., pulses, etc. Even if the booklet becomes a book.
Rating:  - Better than Expected
I was pleasantly surprised with this book. It is a good combination of western and eastern viewpoints. The ear points are well illustrated, and overall, the points are described clearly and concisely. An easy to consult index allows one to look up specific issues quickly. I am a licensed massage therapist who works with Traditional Chinese Medicine, and this book is a great addition to my reference library.

Rating: - Good, but not for beginners

The reason I was considering it was mainly because of the ear acupuncture, which is often not covered in much detail in mainstream acupuncture books. Anyway, about a year after looking at it (since it was always popping up when I was browsing), I took the plunge - and it was well worth it.
The book is paperback size and weighs about 280 g (10 oz), mainly due to the glossy high quality ... Read More
