Review
“What a beautiful little book. Perfect as a desktop reference. The images are so crisp. My favourite part is the images of the ears. I haven’t seen such clear illustrations before. I think this is the first time that I have seen photographs with the ear points on them. Having the points on an actual body is a wonderful resource. The spiral binding was a great idea too.” Dr Debra Godson, Acupuncturist, lecturer in Chinese Medicine
