The Bin Hu Ma Xue, from which this translation was taken, was first written in 1518 and has been a necessary component of acupuncture education for over 500 years. This translation develops each of the basic pulses and their combinations, explaining the essentials of pulse diagnosis: depth, position, relation to areas of the body, seasonal variation, and organ relationships.

The four principal pulses are detailed and explained, and the variations of each are described. The significance of each pulse and variation is presented in traditional Oriental medical terms, making this work both historically important and clinically relevant.
