The Asian Diet
In this era of fad diets, detox programs, and "superfoods," this examination of the relationship between diet and lifestyle looks to the Far East to claim that the simple principles to live by are balance and moderation. By rebuilding the connections between what is put into the body and how it functions, the diet outlined in this book teaches the daily effects that particular food choices will have--on bodyweight, energy, mood, and the quality and duration of life--and that ultimately all foods are good in the right proportion. All major food groups are covered, with additional sections on dietary supplements, lifestyle, and attitude, plus a handful of recipes to demonstrate the principles of the diet.

The Qing Dynasty and Traditional Chinese Culture
The Qing dynasty (1636–1912)—a crucial bridge between “traditional” and “modern” China—was remarkable for its expansiveness and cultural sophistication. This engaging and insightful history of Qing political, social, and cultural life traces the complex interaction between the Inner Asian traditions of the Manchus, who conquered China in 1644, and indigenous Chinese cultural traditions. Noted historian Richard J. Smith argues that the pragmatic Qing emperors presented a “Chinese” face to their subjects who lived south of the Great Wall and other ethnic faces (particularly Manchu, Mongolian, Central Asian, and Tibetan) to subjects in other parts of their vast multicultural e...

Five Element Acupuncture
Praise be to God, and blessings be upon his Messenger, who gave me the opportunity to finish this book called "Five element acupuncture" after the books "Systematic acupuncture" and "Ear acupuncture" and present it to you, the reader. Acupuncture is a part of TCM and requires looking at the person from a holistic perspective. Acupuncture education and training is a very enjoyable process. It requires a long marathon. Unfortunately, I have witnessed many physician friends who did not use the correct method in this marathon, abandoning this race. I frequently used the art of simile in the approach in this book, where we explain acupuncture through a sequence of logic. Thus, abstract subjects a...

The Historical Roots of Technical Communication in the Chinese Tradition
This book traces Chinese technical communication from its beginnings, investigating how it began and the major factors that shaped its practice. It also looks at the major philosophical and historical traditions in Chinese technical communication, and how historical and philosophical threads play out in contemporary Chinese technical communication practice. In considering such issues, the book gives attention to some of the major classical Chinese texts, but treats them as artefacts of technical communication. It explores the roots of Chinese technical communication, reviews traditional philosophy that has shaped such practice, discusses the key links in the history of Chinese technical communication, and recounts historical roots and contemporary practice side by side. It provides the reader with compelling perspectives on the historical roots of Chinese technical communication.
