Compiled by the faculty of one of China's leading schools of traditional medicine, A Comprehensive Text is among the most authoritative textbooks and reference sources in its field. Since its translation into English in 1981, it has become a standard text used throughout the world. Included are descriptions of more than a thousand acupuncture points, hundreds of prescriptions (both ancient and modern) for the treatment of numerous diseases, and detailed discussion of a variety of acupuncture techniques and modalities ranging from ear, head, hand and foot acupuncture to moxibustion, cupping and surgical techniques. There are chapters devoted to modern research concerning acupuncture phenomena, and others which critically analyze ancient theory and methodology. The editors have also provided a lengthy introduction to the principles of traditional Chinese medicine, a select bibliography of current research published in English, and extensive indices.

The final chapter on future developments covers expected future trends in the area of marketing information systems.

This absorbing account of Mark Felt's FBI career--from the end of the great American crime wave through World War II and the culture wars of the 1960s--and his conviction for his role in penetrating the Weather Underground, provides a rich historical and personal context to the "Deep Throat" chapter of his life. Felt's personal recollections of the Watergate scandal (which he wrote in 1982 and kept secret) in which he explains how he came to feel that the FBI needed a "Lone Ranger" to protect it from White House corruption, shed light one of the most mysterious public figures of our time.
