![]() | A Manual of Acupuncture by Peter Deadman
Buy new: $146.25 / Used from: $144.95 I strongly recommend the DVD version -- but no link for it under List Mania options. After #1 above, my favorite reference and study aid with the flexibility to work across training styles.

![]() | The Web That Has No Weaver : Understanding Chinese Medicine by Ted Kaptchuk

![]() | The Brain That Changes Itself: Stories of Personal Triumph from the Frontiers of Brain Science (James H. Silberman Books) by Norman Doidge
Buy new: $10.88 / Used from: $8.49 Fascinating and inspiring book.

Acupuncture is not mentioned, but the concepts reveal a potential means by which acupuncture treatments might be translated into action.
