Three new chapters are offered: (i) for the understanding of the biological activities of herbal medicine, (ii) the products produced from herbs for specific needs, and (iii) the individual's choice for what may suit him/her best. In this present era of information technology, readers should be guided on the use of the Internet and related areas in order to independently secure information for personal use and research needs. The last chapter is provided for this practical purpose.Since the publication of the First Edition, much development has occurred in the field of Chinese medicine. All the chapters have been updated and revised accordingly so that general readers, those looking for effective treatment, as well as those who want to serve their patients better, can have a reliable comprehensive reference.

This book is an accessible and highly readable introduction to all the major aspects of this vast tradition. Topics covered include: • The foundation of traditional medicine in Chinese history • The theory of chi (energy) and how it influences health • The Chinese approach to health, happiness, and longevity • The use of Chinese herbal medicine and herbal formulas • Diet and nutrition as a form of preventive medicine • Acupuncture, acupressure, and massage—including sample techniques for self-massage • The practice of chee-gung, or "moving meditation," as a means of promoting good health • Meditation and internal alchemy • Suggestions for further reading and other resources
