For students and practitioners of Chinese medicine, one of the more
difficult diagnostic methods to learn and master is pulse
diagnosis. Successful transmission of this knowledge and skill
requires the description of what is felt through palpation -
something that often evades the comprehension of most beginning
students, if these descriptions are not portrayed effectively. The
Pocket Atlas of Pulse Diagnosis unravels the mystery of pulse
diagnosis. Detailed explanations of the 28 individual pulses are
presented, along with simple diagrams that vividly illustrate how
the different pulses should "feel" like under the fingers at each
level of palpation. Useful comparisons of the different pulses are
also included to aid the reader in understanding how to
differentiate between the many types of pulses. There is a chapter
that analyzes the pulse manifestations of various common diseases,
as well as a chapter that explores sections of Wang Shu-He's The
Pulse Canon (Mai Jing). One cannot find a more rich presentation of
pulse diagnosis in a pocket-sized atlas. All in all, this is a
valuable and convenient learning tool for anyone seeking to be
proficient in the art of pulse diagnosis.
