Pocket Atlas of Chinese Medicine has taken the subject to a whole new level in terms of clarity, scholarship, and design…it features a beautiful design with lots of great color photographs. In all aspects, this book has pioneered new ground in terms of an introductory textbook…[the authors] have preserved the technical accuracy of the material while still making the subject accessible to readers that are new to Chinese medicine…provides an essential introduction to all the main branches of Chinese medicine, including acupuncture, herbal medicine, tui na, qi gong, and dietary therapy, and it does an excellent job illustrating the rich history and cultural factors that surround Chinese medicine…Gaining a solid foundation at the beginning is essential for a lifetime of learning, and this text has the potential to be a true cornerstone to build upon…every student should get this book within their first year of study.“–Blue Poppy Blog (a discussion of all things TCM)
