TCM Advocate's review is misleading

As a student of Acupuressure massage, I found Dr. Cohens book to be useful, informative, interesting, and easy to read. The book is based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine; it seems as if TCM advocate may not have even read the book he/she so strongly criticizes. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in or involved in Acupuncture, Acupressure, Massage, Chinese food therapy, etc. I recommend it to my fellow massage students all the time.
