Although several books illustrate the art of diagnosis, few have concentrated on the arts of point selection and needling technique. Skya Gardner-Abbate's book fill these gaps admirably. Her teaching and clinical experience breathe from every page and bring the book to life. Her teaching experience has obviously given her an insight into the needs and questions of acupuncture students, which the book answers in a clear and lively manner. As well, her clinical experience solidly illustrates and underpins the theories expounded.
