It gives a wholistic view on how acupuncture is very individualistic. It highlights how it is a profound medicine that is so unique to each individual practitioner and helps guide the practictioner on how to recognize imbalances through the touch.

A book that indeed teaches with practical clues to locate the acupuncture points and to make a more conscientious treatment.
This book belongs to a great master of "Meridian Therapy", that it possesses one of the best books on this theme: "Introduction to Meridian Therapy" (this book is extraordinary and indispensable to all and any acupunturist, be him linked to the acupuncture Chinese, Japanese or western. However, to know more about location of points, with clues of practical existence in the touch in search of the necessary location of the acupuncture points, without a doubt "Finding Effective Acupuncture Points" is of great aid. This book will contribute in the choice of the points to they be treated as the diagnosis done according to the school of the therapy of the meridians. This book is of great aid not just in the treatment, but also in the diagnosis of the disturbances of the meridians.

Clinically useful ( michael79005 )
As precise as Deadman on point location, but also fleshed out with some clinical notes from the author's personal experience. A very useful little reference book.

A must have in any Acupuncture Library ( lao_tzu )
Shudo Sensei is a true gift to the Acupuncture community. It is rare to find and acupuncturist with such great skill and even more rare to find one who is willing to share his information and personal experiences so openly. Shudo Sensei provides a practical look at points which are commonly used and explains proper needling technique, location and indications. He still stresses the need for a proper root treatment, but also provides "symptomatic" uses for points, along with stories of personal experience. Steven Brown does an amazing job translating this book and makes me think that his skill as a translator is only matched by his abilities as an acupuncturist. If you want your acupuncture treatments become more effective you must read this book.
