The book features a passionate and clinically relevant synthesis of Dr.
Liu's discipleship with Yang Zhenhai ( 楊真海), one of the last
remaining master practitioners of Daoist acupuncture in mainland China.
Liu's selection of this specific tradition for conscientious study and
stewardship is based on affirmative answers to two essential questions:
Is this lineage compelled by the objective to address the root of
disease and vitalize the innate healing forces of the human body? Does
the carrier of this lineage transmit his knowledge in a virtuous way?
