5.0 out of 5 stars.  An essential handy reference, November 28, 2009
By Shayna (Illinois, USA)
This is something that you want to have on hand during the course of your studies. It is especially useful in the inclusion of trigger points. My copy is starting fall apart, just because it has been used so much! I always keep it on a shelf nearby for ready reference.

4.0 out of 5 stars.  Good Pocket Atlas, February 20, 2009
By Dr Bill (Colorado Springs, Colorado United States)
This is a book you will use. If combined with Hecker, et al Color Atlas of Acupuncture: Body Points - Ear Points - Trigger Points (Complementary Medicine (Thieme)) (without the trigger point stuff) it would make a much better book. Also, they could have color coded the sections and meridians along the edge for easier identification as in the Color Atlas, but that's a minor complaint. I especially like the size and weight of this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars.  Some mistakes, November 18, 2008
By sharpdart (NY, NY)
My first application of this book revealed several mistakes in the Stomach Meridian images. Several classmates also told me they found similar mistakes in other chapters. While this is a great book, it makes me double check and not rely on the information.

5.0 out of 5 stars.  Invaluable for acupuncture school, November 08, 2008
By Reader (New York)
This is the one to get - even if it's not on your "required" list. It is pocket-sized but packed full of useful, portable information. I use it for quick point reference, particularly in grand rounds. It is condensed, but complete. Has concise information on tongue and pulse diagnosis, basic Chinese medicine and all the points and meridians. My friend has the other one - lots of full-frontal nudity with real human models in her book, and it cracks us both up! Who needs that in school. This book is nicely made and looks like it will last. Very, very handy.
