Meac_medium

This textbook presents a thorough review of available scientific data on western acupuncture, combined with a practical introduction to the subject on its different applications. No existing book draws together such a variety of up-to-date material, and its value as a comprehensive and scientific reference for beginner or practicing acupuncturists - both medical and non-medical - will be unique. Authors are drawn from the UK, Europe and USA.

FEATURES:
· Comprehensive. A broad-based overview of the scientific data available on a western approach to an application of acupuncture.
· Scientific. Presents clear data and extensive references.
· Unique. At present, there is no book which combines the practical side of acupuncture with such up-to-date data. (NB. Competing material out-of-date on scientific data)

· Distinguished contributors. Distils the knowledge and wisdom of eminent authors from the UK, mainland Europe and USA.
