Voices of Qi: An Introductory Guide to Traditional Chinese Medicine

Voices of QiVoices of Qi:
An Introductory Guide to Traditional Chinese Medicine

Description:
We are in the middle of a cultural revolution in the health care industry. Nearly eight thousand people practice Traditional Chinese Medicine in the US and thirty-five states currently offer some form of legal status for its practice. Many people are seeking alternatives to the Western, medical approach to health care. To these seekers, Voices of Qi is an invaluable aid in exploring what Traditional Chinese Medicine has to offer. Alex Holland has done an admirable job of presenting the basic tenets and practices to this ancient tradition in a clear, concise and accessible manner.

Author Biography:
Alex Holland is an acupuncturist, teacher, musician and composer. He was one of the first graduates in 1985 from the Northwest Institute of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in Seattle and has been instrumental in the Institute's continued growth and development. He was the Institute's Academic Dean from 1992 to 1996 and former Chair of the Board of Directors. He spent time in Chongqing, China in 1985, working at the Chongqing Research Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine. He currently lives in a woodland hideaway with his wife, Linda, and three cats in the Victorian seaport of Port Townsend, WA, where they operate Peninsula Acupuncture Clinic. He divides his time between practicing acupuncture, music, teaching and exploring healing through energy medicine and expanded conciousness.

Understanding Chinese Medicine

This is a full and richly presented text that introduces Oriental medical concepts to readers unfamiliar with these ideas. The material presented is derived from modern Chinese practice of acupuncture and herbology, supported by clinical sketches and references to authoritative Chinese sources. By emphasizing the holistic aspects of Chinese medicine, this book has connected acupuncture and herbology to American and European social trends in favor of alternate forms of medical practice. By introducing the ideas of Chinese medicine with familiar terms, and in relation to Western traditions, it has opened the minds of a generation.

The discussion of organs and their related pathologies includes the hun, po, yi, shen, and zhi, their virtues and psychological propensities. There are over100 pages reviewing biomedical research into acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. The author also discusses historical approaches towards intention and intuition in diagnosis and expands upon the patient-physician relationship in Chinese medicine.

The footnotes have been updated to include the latest information about East Asian medicine in academic disciplines as biomedicine, pharmacology, anthropology, history, sociology and sinology.
