Translated by Andrew Ellis
Trade Paperback Book
ISBN 9780965659406
This book differs from the majority of Chinese acupuncture textbooks because it is not government sponsored and is not bound by a predetermined curriculum. The work is written in the spirit of teacher to apprentice that has characterized the transmission of this information for hundreds of years. In the pages of this book, Dr. Shi speaks directly to the student, imparting what he has learned in his many years of study and practice. The treatments for the more than fifty disorders covered are those that Dr. Shi used at Xiamen Chinese Medical Hospital, and the dozen or so case studies are also from his practice there. The location points and methods of treatment discussed herein do not necessarily conform to the mainstream of Chinese medicine that is taught in the institutions of modern China, but instead are part of a living tradition handed down from teacher to student. As the tradition was given to him, Dr. Shi here hands it to us.
