This book provides students and practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine with detailed descriptions of the images and functions of the major acupuncture points. Images are the mental pictures suggested by the Chinese characters which comprise the names of the points; functions are the energetic actions of the points themselves.
Approximately two hundred fifty of the most widely-used points have been selected for discussion. The location, classification, image, functions, associated indications, and contra-indications are listed for each of the points.
An extensive repertory of traditional functions and their associated points, organized in table form, is included in a separate chapter. This will enable the practitioner to move more quickly from the diagnosis of a problem to the prescription of appropriate points in the clinic.
There is also a character dictionary in which various meanings of the characters used in the point names are identified, and different points whose names share the same characters are noted. The reader's understanding of the point names is thereby broadened.
An index of points arranged by channel, number, pinyin, and English translation is provided for convenient location of the points in the book.
