Reviews
As an introduction to Chinese Medicine and how it can help us, this book cannot be bettered. Angela Hicks writes with such clarity and lightness of touch that understanding the key aspects of Chinese Medicine and its therapies becomes an absolute pleasure. Her deep knowledge of the subject and a wealth of experience as a practitioner shine through the text, and her skilled use of patients' stories bring the information to life. The book is scholarly but very readable and comprehensive but clear and simple. If you are curious about Chinese Medicine, for whatever reason, this is the book for you. -- Dr Charlotte Paterson, Honorary Research Fellow, School of Social and Community Medicine, University of Bristol This is the work of a clear mind. Informed by decades of experience and shining with a love of her subject, Angela Hicks has written the most lucid and accessible guide to Chinese medicine I have ever read. If you want to find out more about Chinese medicine but don't know where to start, start here. -- Daverick Leggett, author of Recipes for Self Healing
