Synopsis
"Comprehensive, encyclopedic, and lucid, this book is a must for all practitioners of the healing arts who want to broaden their understanding. Readers interested in the role of herbs and foods in healing will also find much to learn here, as I have. . . . A fine work."--Annemarie Colbin, author of Food and Healing The promise and mystery of Chinese medicine has intrigued and fascinated Westerners ever since the "Bamboo Curtain" was lifted in the early 1970s. Now, in Between Heaven and Earth, two of the foremost American educators and healers in the Chinese medical profession demystify this centuries-old approach to health. Harriet Beinfeld and Efrem Korngold, pioneers in the practice of acupuncture and herbal medicine in the United States for over eighteen years, explain the philosophy behind Chinese medicine, how it works and what it can do. Combining Eastern traditions with Western sensibilities in a unique blend that is relevant today, Between Heaven and Earth addresses three vital areas of Chinese medicine--theory, therapy, and types--to present a comprehensive, yet understandable guide to this ancient system. Whether you are a patient with an aggravating complaint or a curious intellectual seeker, Between Heaven and Earth opens the door to a vast storehouse of knowledge that bridges the gap between mind and body, theory and practice, professional and self-care, East and West.

    AMAZING! I am still trying to figure out how the seller did such an amazing packing job to make sure this tea cup arrived in all its pristine gorgeousness. Seriously, not a chip or crack anywhere and better than described. Shipping was quick and I feel like a I got a great value.

    As described. Came super fast. Good communication. Could have been packed a little better. It was rattling around a lot when it arrived. Ok sized packing box, but with very little tissue/packing paper. I haven’t tried it yet. I hope it works. It appears as though it will work. Good price. Would buy again. Thank you.
