Guest guest Report post Posted March 12, 2010 Well, the long-awaited translation and extensive (I mean expensive) commentary on Li Shi-Zhen's " An Exposition of the Eight Extraordinary Vessels " is finally out. Charles Chace, Miki Shima, and Eastland Press have done an excellent job with this text. I highly recommend it - I can't stop reading it. http://www.eastlandpress.com/books/an_exposition_on_the_eight_extraordinary_ vessels_acupuncture_alchemy_and_herbal_medicine.php Enjoy, -Jason Acupuncture Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted March 12, 2010 Thanks for the alert Jason. I've looked at the sample and it looks like a book we certainly want to have in our library. It's a pity, though, that Eastland announces: <<This is the first English translation of Li Shi-Zhen's Exposition on the Eight Extraordinary Vessels.>> Arnoud Versluys published a translation of the text on cm-db.com (Jonathan Schell's Database), it has been available for a couple of years.
