Dear Jim,

 

Read the book a year ago. We have a copy at the Melbourne University

Medical Library. She made a very good presentation of the early history of

acupuncture in Britain.

 

Regards,

Rick,

 

A couple of good things to get would be Yeung's two books Handbook of

Chinese Herbs, and the companion, Handbook of formulas, and Jake

Fratkin's new reference book on Chinese herbal patent Formulas.

 

Good Luck,

 

Yehuda

Greg,

 

How about looking for a used Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine? You

can find it at www.bookfinder.com

It is the most comprehensive western medical tome I have seen. I only

suggest used because it is expensive.

 

A new PDR is always a good idea, and I like Principles of Neurology by Adams

and Victor.

Hi Greg

 

In the field of A & P I very much like Marieb's " Human Anatomy and

Physiology " ISBN 0-321-20413-1.

I haven't started the other subjects yet so I can't comment on those.

Greg and Alwin, Marieb's " Human Anatomy and Physiology " (green cover) is kind

of an inexpensive version of the book by the same name now in it's sixth

edition. When you order the sixth edition, you get the up to date version. I

agree with you, Alwin, it's such a good book that it's the one I require for my

year long course in anatomy and physiology at Merritt College. Any books, now

out of print by Ben Pansky are great. Physiology review by Ganang is great.

The Clemente atlas for human anatomy is regional and layers upon layers get

reflected so that you see deeper and deeper structures. It's good for human

dissection as well as for getting anatomical correlates for acupuncture. I tend

to feel for the meridian qi flow when I insert needles, so I don't know how much

my knowledge of anatomy unconsciously helps me. Dr. Marieb uses the best

pictures from the best texts, so I fully agree with Alwin and recommend this

book. She's the best. I've been teaching with various editions of her book for

many years.

One of my favorite non-CM books is " Listen to Your Pain " by Ben E.

Benjamin. Not a classroom text.

Al, this is the first book we got in introduction to physical diagnosis at U.T.

San Antonio Medical School. It's a fabulous book that is actually a part of

most nursing programs.

Sylla's

Gabriel Mojay's

Salvatore Battaglia's

 

and I sold Martin's before Butch made it 'exclusive. "

 

I recommend a lot of others.

 

among them, Colleen K. Dodt's and Roberta Wilson's.

I have them listed on our Amazon link... I am not, primarily, a book

dealer... I import Sal's, and bought out the remaining first edition books

on Gabriel's...that's why I have them in stock...

 

Gabriel's is the only book I carry that is generally available via amazon

or your local book store...and that's a special case.

 

I didn't say I DON'T recommend Kurt's books... I mentioned two that I DO

recommend...

anyone have any recommendations for good books on hebal healing ?

 

To me, the bible of herbal healing is Dr. Christopher's School of Natural Healing. It's a big fat book chock full of just about anything you want to know about herbs (and more) and when and how to use them. I bought my copy for $10 at Half.com or one of those used book sites. I use so many that I don't remember exactly which one.

I agree...very little specific info about the oils she uses...

 

and why a totally different blend for a sore elbow than for a sore knee?????

 

That's why I like the Wilson book...she does monographs on the oils and

THEN suggested uses....

I have the PDR guide to Natural Medicines and Healing Therapies. It's

OK as a general reference regarding what the different types of

alternative therapies and it's OK in its description of herbs but it

says things like the typical oral dosage for pine oil is 5 grams (1

tsp) daily. ???????????? So I don't trust what is says regarding

overdose, side effects and usage of herbs and oils. Susan

Hmmm...this one lists various pines. For pini turiones it gives an avg daily

dose of 9gm and externally 100gm of alcoholic extract can be added to bath water

with liquid or semi-solid prep of extras corrsponding to 20-50% can also be

used. In folk medicine (I know I know....folk medicine can be handed down

incorrectly) 500ml of a 20% infusion can be sued. It also lists pini

aetheroleum and terebinthinae aetheroleum rectificatum.

 

It likes to list the Encyclopedia of Common Natural Ingredients Used in Food

Drugs and Cosmetics for more information.

 

Ah, well I'm good for the plant information for a buck. I've got Martin's

reference on the oils. ;)

 

At least it lists the poison control and drug information centers for each

state. 8)

Fantastic and the Last Testament: The Encyclopedia Describing the

Metaphysical and Mineralogical Properties of the Mineral Kingdom by Melody

 

Has pictures of all of the crystals in one book. This is the new one

that came out this year. She also talks about some crystals

in the The Book of Crystals that have been mis-represented which is a

valuable resource especially for

newbies. .. for example the Angel Ajoite is actually Chrysocolla in

Quartz, there is no Ajoite in that at all.

Hi! Books are great, but intuition is better. I find sometimes that

Crystals & Stones can work differently for each Person & each Stone &

Crystal has its own personallity. Some will do much more for you than

the Books say. Working with Spirit can be FUN! ENJOY! LLL, Karen-Singing

Try Amazon, I always buy used books there. The Book Of Stones:Robert Simmons

& Naisha Ahsian is one I have and like. Also, Crystal Power, Crystal Healing:

Michael Gienger, is informative. I've heard a lot of good things about Judy

Hall's

books, but have not read any of them yet.
