Introduction
More than 2000 years ago, a Chinese doctor named Bianque saved the life of a crown prince simply with an acupuncture needle. The story became one of the earliest acupuncture medical cases and went down in history. Perhaps since then, people have been immersed in fantastic reveries about the mystery of acupuncture and kept on studying it. In 1975, at the request of the World Health Organization, an acupuncture school was founded in Beijing, China, namely China Beijing International Acupuncture Training Center. As one of the sponsor institutions, the center complied a text book of Chinese Acupuncture and Moxibustion for foreigners and had it published in 1980 and reprinted repeatedly afterwards, which is of profound far-reaching influence and has been adopted as a “model book” for acupuncture education and examination in many countries, and played a significant role in the global dissemination of acupuncture at the present time.
Today, for the purpose of being “authentic and professional”, we have compiled a series of books entitled Chinese Acupuncture Series to introduce incisively the basic theories of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and acupuncture-moxibustion techniques, which is characterized by inheriting and developing the characteristics of the original text book of Chinese Acupuncture and Moxibustion; presenting authoritatively the systematic teaching materials with concise explanation based on a core syllabus for TCM professional education in China.
In addition, just as the same plant might have its unique properties when growing if different geographical environments, this set of books may reflect our experience accumulated in 30-years of international acupuncture training with its own style.
In order to let the book come out in time for the occasion of the 2009 Frankfurt International Book Fair, our scheduled time for preparation has been shortened by half. Though the whole team has worked hard to guarantee the quality, errors and omissions may still exist. We sincerely hope that the readers will oblige us with corrections.
