and scientific presentation of acutherapy, based on an interpretation
of it as an autonomic nervous system stimulator. Included are treatment
summaries for 52 Western medical conditions and drawings of the 14 primary
channels.

Book
of Five Rings
Musashi, a 16th century Japanese warrior and perhaps the
most famous ronin or roving swordsman in Japan's history, compiled a book
of strategy based on his life's experience and observations. The language
and imagery center on the five aspects of Ground, Water, Fire, Wind, and
Void. Ground is the body of the way; Water is the spirit of the way, Fire
is the way of battle, Wind is the way of old traditions, and Void is following
the true way according to nature. The text is accompanied by many of Musashi's
fine drawings and calligraphic works.
