In the Footsteps of the Yellow Emperor:

Tracing the History of Traditional Acupuncture

Product Description
Acupuncture now enjoys immense popularity as a major form of alternative healing in the West. Once considered mysterious and exotic, acupuncture dates from before the first century BC and the Huang Di Nei Jing (The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic), one of ancient China's earliest philosophical and medicinal texts. What makes it so popular today? How did the traditions of acupuncture evolve, migrate, and adapt to different societies worldwide?
Originally published in 1996 to great acclaim, this updated paperback edition of In the Footsteps of the Yellow Emperor offers a fascinating and highly readable account of one doctor's personal and professional quest to explore the healing traditions of Asia, its rich historical lineage, and its subsequent transmission to contemporary Europe and North America. It is a must-have book in the healing arts for all practitioners and general-interest readers.

The Book of Changes In Traditional Oriental Medicine

An edited transcript of classes taught in 1983 and 1984

Product Description
"One of the fundamental principles of traditional Oriental medicine is the original unity of all of creation in the oneness of the Dao. I like to think of this image as being mirrored in the history of the development of traditional Oriental medicine itself -- so that from the myriad theories and styles that constitute today's "tradition", we can trace our way back in time to a common root. This common root is usually taken to be the two parts of the book called the Huangdi Nei Jing (Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic). What I propose to do in this discussion is to make a case for there being a still deeper root in the I Jing (Classis of Changes). This is not merely a drab question of ancient history, but a living one that can help us understand some of the puzzling branches that have developed on the tree of traditional Oriental medicine."
