Summary: A short read to a long life
Comment: Bob Flaws is a prolific writer in the field of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). In this book he imparts the wisdom of a Chinese emperor on longevity, interpreting how it can be adapted to contemporary life. This wisdom includes: appreciating different body needs for different stages of our life from childhood to old age; a regular lifestyle; modifying one's eating habits to include more grains, fruit and vegetables, and less meat; moderation in sex; ensuring sufficient but not too much rest and relaxation; self-massage exercises; good types of exercise; and the benefits of qi gong. The book is interspersed with excerpts from classical TCM literature as well as anecdotes from Bob Flaws personal clinical experience as an acupuncturist and herbalist. Readers new to TCM may find some of the terminology in the book a bit strange, but all readers will undoubtedly want to make some changes to their lifestyle after reading it. A few suggestions on further reading would have brought this up to five stars.
