secrets and age-old wisdom." --Arianna Huffington Bestselling

natural treatments. The Chinese refer to a woman's midlife
transition as her Second Spring. Thanks to the simple, natural
techniques of traditional Chinese medicine, the second half of a
woman's life is a flowering of feminine potential rather than a
physical and mental decline. Now, Dr. Mao's revolutionary Second

your own new season of vitality starting at age thirty-five,
through premenopause, menopause, and beyond. Dr. Mao--Yahoo!'s

Secrets of Longevity--offers proven natural solutions such as a
surgery-free face-lift, Chinese herbs that fight memory loss,
traditional remedies that improve libido and sex, and foods that
keep your specific body type in peak form (they're not the same for
everyone!). His safe, natural practices, outlined in more than 200
tips, can eliminate the need for expensive medicines and artificial
hormones. This amazing compendium of traditional wisdom is also
enjoyable to read. With chapters on topics like weight, energy,
brain power, beauty, and sexual health, Second Spring allows you to
target your concerns right away. At the end you'll find handy,
at-a-glance lists addressing women's most common ailments. Second
Spring, inspired by Dr. Mao's own mother's remarkable

lifestyle program that will help you live long, live strong, and

The Neijing is one of the most important classics of Taoism, as
well as the highest authority on traditional Chinese medicine. Its
authorship is attributed to the great Huang Di, the Yellow Emperor,
who reigned during the third millennium BCE. This new translation
consists of the eighty-one chapters of the section of the Neijing
known as the Suwen, or Questions of Organic and Fundamental Nature.
(The other section, called the Lingshu, is a technical book on
acupuncture and is not included here.) Written in the form of a
discourse between Huang Di and his ministers, The Yellow Emperor's
Classic of Medicine contains a wealth of knowledge, including
etiology, physiology, diagnosis, therapy, and prevention of
disease, as well as in-depth investigation of such diverse subjects
as ethics, psychology, and cosmology. All of these subjects are
discussed in a holistic context that says life is not fragmented,
as in the model provided by modern science, but rather that all the
pieces make up an interconnected whole. By revealing the natural
laws of this holistic universe, the book offers much practical
advice on how to promote a long, happy, and healthy life. The
original text of the Neijing presents broad concepts and is often
brief with details. The translator's elucidations and
interpretations, incorporated into the translation, help not only
to clarify the meaning of the text but also to make it a highly
readable narrative for students--as well as for everyone curious
about the underlying principles of Chinese medicine.
