Very good reference book!

The major points are covered in good detail and I carry it with me at all times for backup study. Would be much better if it had illustrated charts of the meridians though. You will need to print one out for reference.

great book

I really enjoyed and value this book it presents the information not only about the location of the points but the image of each i.e. how it was named and the reason it is named the way it is. Also it gives a summation of key points and how points are linked. Excellent for anyone interested in the "ART" of chinese medicine not just a linear study of this ancient way of healing

An acupuncturist's bible.

Arnie Lade does an excellent job of re-introducing the poetry and artistry of chinese medicine. This is book is beautifully written, and well laid out. It is a brilliantly clear resource for students and practitioners alike, as well as being an enjoyable and informative read.A must on the bookshelves of anyone interested in chinese medicine.
