Summary: Must have for first semester TCM students!
Comment: This book is the easiest and most complete "introduction" to Chinese medicine. Don't be discouraged if you find it complicated at times, Chinese Medicine can be that way in general. Kaptchuk has done a fabulous job at making it simple. If you're getting ready to enter a TCM school or just beginning, this is YOUR text. It is the BEST book introduction book I have ever read on TCM. My former TCM school didn't have it as required reading. BIG mistake! I was told by an instructor to read it anyway because it was going to give me a solid foundation. I practically devoured the book. Folks interested in Chinese medicine or want to get treatments or better understand their current treatments should read this book.

Summary: Turns TCM more interesting by demystifiing it
Comment: five stars because could't give more. Definitely interesting. It is a good source for the non oriental student of chinese medicine. Not abstract mysticism but instead a non passionate discourse of the phylosophical background of TCM
Customer Rating: 
Summary: a great book for conventional physicians
Comment: i'm still busy reading the book (final chapters).
dr. kaptchuk succeeds in presenting the chinese phylosophy to physicians reared on conventional ideas and practice.
the book is very efficient in pacifying any conflict between the two schools of thought.
great book, great purchase.
