Who Can Ride the Dragon
An excellent book for the new student! This text provides
insight into the depth and subtlety of traditional Chinese medicine by
delving into the linguistic and cultural wellsprings of Chinas venerable
past. The authors knowledge, thoughtfulness, and dedication to their
topic clearly radiate from every page. Steven Given, Dean of Clinical
Education at Yo San University, has this to say of the book: "Their
interweaving of language, religion and culture results in a cogent and
highly readable discourse that ties together the elements of culture and
medicine. Zhang and Roses examination of the etymology and structure
of the Chinese language is a major contribution to our understanding of
how traditional Chinese medicine functions today."

Web
that has no Weaver
This is a full and richly presented text that introduces
Oriental medical concepts to readers unfamiliar with these ideas. The
material presented is derived from modern Chinese practice of acupuncture
and herbology, supported by clinical sketches and references to authoritative
Chinese sources. By emphasizing the holistic aspects of Chinese medicine,
this book has connected acupuncture and herbology to American and European
social trends in favor of alternate forms of medical practice. By introducing
the ideas of Chinese medicine with familiar terms, and in relation to
Western traditions, it has opened the minds of a generation.
