Just got my copy of "Pocket Atlas of Chinese Medicine" by my friends and colleagues Marnae and Kevin Ergil. Just finished the first few chapters devoted to history, theory and diagnostics and it was fascinating. Skimmed the rest of the book and at first glance appears to be a great overview and primer of our wonderful art of TCM. Equal time is given to all the branches of our discipline including acupuncture, herbology, qigong, tuina, dietary theory and taiji. The last chapter is on research. Well-written, great illustrations and photographs. This will be regarded as right up there with Kaptchuk's "The Web That Has No Weaver: Understanding Chinese Medicine" and Bienfeld and Korngolds "Between Heaven and Earth: A Guide to Chinese Medicine". In my very humble opinion a great resource for practitioners and patients. A future classic ;-) Thanks guys.
I love Thieme textbooks and this glossary of TCM techniques has been a nice review for me. Can't really sit down and read through whole text but good for getting basic definitions of all of the interventions associated with TCM.
Very thorough, well made and well illustrated.
