Includes bibliographical references and index.
Summary:
How
western
medicine
validates the theories of Chinese
medicine
, and
how
Chinese
medicine
explains
the
mysteries
of the body that
western
medicine
largely ignores. The generative force of embryology,
how
the hearts of two people in love truly beat as one,
how
a cheating heart is also an ill heart,
how
neural crest cells determine our lifespan, and why Proust's madeleines evoked the memories they did.
How
the theories of
western
and Chinese
medicine
support each other, and
how
the integrated theory enlarges our understanding of
how
bodies work. British acupuncturist Dr Keown received a degree in
Medicine
from Manchester University in 1998. In 2008 he completed a degree in Chinese
Medicine
and
Acupuncture
from the College of Integrated Chinese
Medicine
