The Great Compendium of Acupuncture and Moxibustion Vol. I

Focusing on classical Chinese medicine, this encyclopedic work from the Ming dynasty presents key theories and practices of acupuncture and moxibustion. The first volume features selected quotations from seminal Han period texts, including the Huang Di Nei Jing and Nan Jing, complemented by Yang Jizhou's insights and explanations. This foundational volume sets the stage for Yang's personal clinical experiences and further elaborations in the subsequent volumes, making it a vital resource for understanding traditional acupuncture practices.
