“As an introduction to Chinese Medicine and how it can help us, this book cannot be bettered. Angela Hicks writes with such clarity and lightness of touch that understanding the key aspects of Chinese Medicine and its therapies becomes an absolute pleasure. Her deep knowledge of the subject and a wealth of experience as a practitioner shine through the text, and her skilled use of patients' stories bring the information to life. The book is scholarly but very readable and comprehensive but clear and simple. If you are curious about Chinese Medicine, for whatever reason, this is the book for you.”
