Points: Images & Functions
The
author has compiled descriptions of the images and functions of approximately
250 acupoints. Each discussion includes: location, classification, image,
functions, associated indications, and contraindications. A separate chapter
presents descriptions of traditional functions and associated points organized
in table form. A dictionary identifies the characters used in point names
and the different points that contain each character. There is an index
of points arranged by channel with alphanumeric identification, pinyin,
and English translation. Both classical and modern sources are referenced.
The text sheds considerable light on function descriptions.

Acupuncture,
A Comprehensive Text
One
of the first English-language reference works on acupuncture points, this
text has greatly contributed to the development of acupuncture outside
of China. The introduction covers the main elements of diagnosis and treatment,
while the main part of the text is a modern point reference work developed
by the Shanghai College of TCM. Covering fundamental information for the
practice of acupuncture, this book is one of the handful of English-language
texts to have been given scholarly recognition, as well as being required
reading for U.S. licensure examinations.

Book
of Acupuncture Points
There
is an essential difference between this book and the other point books
available, one of considerable value to practitioners. The book is concerned
with neither the basic theories of traditional Chinese medicine nor the
summarization of acupuncture for general purposes. Rather, it is a formulary
and clinical reference developed from the clinical tradition of Ching
Tan An, Tsang Tien Chi, and Tin Yau So. It uniquely portrays the teacher-to-apprentice
system of instruction, a system that played an important role in the transmission
of clinical information prior to the synthesis of TCM in the post-war
period.
