5.0 out of 5 stars if you are studying TCM this is an excellent book to read., 22 Dec 2003
By A Customer
This is an excellent tool to help revise if you are studying TCM or if a new comer, then to get a feel for it. It is an easy read with diagrams to help visualise basic processess of how the body (in chinese medicine) works. With the odd quiz to help see if you have an understanding of the content you can't quibble!
I find I can't put the book down. I am revising and learning new things from this book. The price is great too. Not to be missed.
