About the book >.>.> This book will form a valuable addition to the reference library of anyone asso- ciated with acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). It is among the first in the English language to amalgamate into one comprehensive work the issues of ethical considerations and risk management as well as offering in-depth practical answers to the questions of newly graduated practitioners facing a new set of daunting tasks following their formal education. Others who will benefit from this book include students especially in their internship years looking ahead to starting their own practice. It will make stu- dents aware of the serious nature of ethical practice and accident prevention from the very beginning. It takes far more than a knowledge of point location and needling technique to make a good acupuncturist; our responsibility to patients requires taking care at every step. If we cannot always help at least we will know enough to do no harm. This book is also helpful for the practitioners who want to deepen their knowledge whether that is in learning more effective and less painful needle techniques better clinical management or going to China to study. It goes into great detail in areas of technique because the quality of our practice and the suc- cess of our treatments rest on our attention to these small but crucial matters. (LL)
