Synopsis
Dao of Chinese Medicine is the first Western text to shed light on the reality of the ancient healing arts of China, revealing that Chinese medical theories are based on important physiological findings. This is in contrast to the Western interpretation, popularized since the 1940s and 50s, that Chinese medicine and acupuncture involve undefined energy and blood circulating through imaginary meridians., Dao of Chinese Medicine is the first Western text to shed light on the reality of the ancient healing arts of China, revealing that Chinese medical theories are based on important physiological findings. This is in contrast to the Western interpretation, popularized since the 1940s and 50s that Chinese medicine and acupuncture involve undefined energy and blood circulating through imaginary meridians. Unfortunately, the energy-meridian idea condemned Chinese medicine to be viewed in terms of metaphysical beliefs, limiting its acceptance into mainstream health care. It also led to a growing frustration to reinvent acupuncture in Western terms before understanding the true way (dao) of Chinese medicine. Dao of Chinese Medicine sets the record straight, explaining how ancient Chinese physicians developed a physiologically based medicine with the theories supported by human dissection studies and how Chinese medical theories are consistent with 21st century explanations about how acupuncture works.

    Great seller! Had a question about two items I wanted to purchase. Sent an email to seller at 8:35 pm, they answered me an hour later the same evening! Prompt shipping, secure packaging, very reasonable and polite to deal with. Items were in even better condition than described on seller listing. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from this seller again. Most highly recommended!!

    This coat matches description and arrived 24 hours after purchase- so fast. Seller at first didn't respond to questions but a few days later responded very promptly and was very understanding and considerate towards me in case I wanted to cancel purchase since I hadn't heard back. I really appreciated that. I am happy with purchase and seller.
