4.0 out of 5 stars Acupuncture for beginners and energy workers, 6 Feb 2007
By K. J. Tinker "Karen Jane" (Barnsley, Yorkshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Summary; informative, clearly set out, excellent self help diagnosis techniques, inspires me to want more.
I found this book more than helpful as a beginner's guide to acupuncture; Ms Hicks explains the principles of Chinese Traditional Medicine, the Five
Elements Theory and the principles of meridians and acupuncture clearly, in simple but non-patronising language.
The self help quizzes to work out one's (possible/probable) imbalances and diagnosis(es) are simple to use and understand too. Very helpful.
The intermittent mentions of Chinese doctors are very interesting and shows that Angela Hicks knows her stuff at a core level.
I would have liked pictures of the meridians with acupuncture points, but I guess you can't have everything, or Ms Hicks would be out of a job!!
A very good read for anyone interested in acupuncture or any kind of energy work..
