Gunter Neeb is ideally suited to present this valuable manual on the treatment of blood stasis. He studied the Chinese language for three years in Taiwan, and Chinese medicine to Master's level in Tianjin, China, writing his thesis on blood stasis. His ability to translate both classical and modern texts informs this book at every level..Yet this book is much more than an account of blood stasis in classical literature. It covers diagnosis and differentiation of blood stasis, with particular emphasis on the tongue, different treatment principles, blood stasis medicinals and formulas..Although it will be primarily of theoretical interest to acupuncturists, it is valuable clinical text for herbalists. <br><br><br>Journal of Chinese Medicine.
