Summary: This is a keeper!
Comment: I purchased the book and the video tape. It is truly an excellent reference manual and I believe is a good basis start with. It's easy to understand and you can go out and start doing it. It's nice how the book has different ailments broken down so you can refer to a specific problem without wading through a bunch of text. My horses love it and I love doing it for them.

Summary: factual but floaty
Comment: As an student of acupuncture and a university instructor teaching animal anatomy, I found this book to be very informative in the background and philosphy of the chinese system of healing regarding the five elements and chinese theory, however the drawings and acpressure point illustrations are vague. The points hover and "float" on a rough skeletal drawing and the anatomy is totally absent. Some points are floating away from the skeletal landmarks and have no muscular or nerve references because they are set against a blank background. There is also a flat side view which doesn't help when understanding the deeper levels of some of the meridians and the skeletal references are weak. Therefore, especially for the layperson, the book is insufficient. Even the simplist of acupuncture and acupressure books for humans have a simple but thorough anatomy reference. This book lacks in this area, but is very good in breaking down the chinese theraputic approach in a way western practitioners can understand.

Comment: I have read the book and veiwed the video. I also attended a workshop taught by one of the authors. I strongly recommend contacting tallgrass publications and attending a workshop. It has benefited me as well as my horses and dogs.
