Acupuncture Interactive Book CD ROM for Windows 95 |

By KAREsoft Reviewed by Douglas Eisenstark L.Ac., www.taiqi.com Acupuncture.com is a great example of a truly democratic Internet. Questions and comments come in from seasoned veteran acupuncturists and the desperate patient, those who hope that acupuncture can cure what Western Medicine hasn't. In between, we've learned that there are those who have an interest in acupuncture but haven't taken the leap into an acupuncture school or who have been treated but don't really know what acupunture is or why their acupuncturist is doing what s/he is doing.. Many of us can relate: We were all there once. KAREsoft's Acupuncture Interactive Book is a clever and well-functioning book that fills the need for those people who want to know a little yet don't know too much. Written by Dr. Zhang Ahan-Hai, a relatively young doctor involved with research at the famed Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine University, the program effectively takes one through all the basics of acupuncture from history to animations of cupping techniques. Included are sections on:
For the experienced acupuncturist the point section labeled "Gallery" is fun and provides a kind of self quiz. Click on the points from a drawing and get the location and indications. Because this inludes all the points it is a simple review to all those seldom used and perhaps forgotten pints. Students obviously can benefit from the program especially as a study guide to the points and pathways. The Acupuncture Interactive Book may be just the program for the technologically advanced waiting room. Its information is enough to give an idea of the complexity of Acupucnture while allowing un-schooled patients basic knowledge in an intelligent manner. The program requires Windows 95 and is installed easily and runs equally smoothly.
