An informative and provocative text, this book describes the current status of knowledge and challenges scientists to better define acupuncture therapy. The first section covers the scientific basis and mechanism of acupuncture, particularly in relation to the cardiovascular system. The second section is devoted to clinical case studies, illustrating that scientific knowledge can be integrated with traditional concepts in Chinese medicine to provide effective treatments. It is a useful reference guide for advanced students and practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture, as well as scientists conducting physiological and pharmacological research.
