About the author:

He began his acupuncture studies with (Dr. Eric) Tao Xi-yu in Denver, CO in 1977. In 1982, he continued his acupuncture studies at the Shanghai College of Chinese Medicine and worked as an acupuncture intern at the Long Hua Chinese Medical Hospital. Bob is author, translator, and/or editor of over 100 books and scores of articles on all aspects of acupuncture and Chinese medicine. He is a founder of the Council of Oriental Medical Publishers. In addition, he is a founder, past President, and Lifetime Fellow of the Acupuncture Association of Colorado, a Fellow and past Governor of the National Academy of Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine, and a Fellow of the Register of Chinese Herbal Medicine (UK).

“I remember how, as a student and young practitioner, I was always having to look up acupuncture points locations, needling depths, and indications. Therefore, when I came across my notebook from the Shanghai College of TCM with my teacher’s lecture notes on points, I thought this material might be useful to students. I never realized what great sales this little book would have. We literally can’t keep it in stock at schools and conventions. The success of this little book has caused us to create several other true pocketbooks for students.”
