Features: This book includes 22 papers by the authors and 52 clinical case studies of common diseases, providing a comprehensive reflection of the academic thoughts and clinical experiences of the late Master Lu Shouyan in acupuncture. The late Master Lu, inheriting his family's tradition, devoted himself to diligent research and fully mastered the true essence of acupuncture. He meticulously studied classical Chinese medical texts such as the Neijing (Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon), Jia Yi Jing (Yellow Emperor's Classic of Acupuncture and Moxibustion), Nan Jing (Classic of Difficult Issues), and Zhen Jiu Da Cheng (Great Compendium of Acupuncture and Moxibustion), exploring the formation and evolution of traditional Chinese acupuncture theory, verifying acupuncture points, elaborating on the meridian theory and its clinical significance, and particularly demonstrating his unique insights and original contributions in the study and application of acupuncture techniques. The authors devoted their lives to acupuncture education, boldly reforming teaching aids and other aspects, making significant contributions to the development of traditional Chinese acupuncture and earning a high reputation in the field of acupuncture and moxibustion. The selected papers in the book have mostly been published and hold considerable influence, while the clinical case studies primarily cover common conditions, reflecting the authors' extensive acupuncture treatment experience and rigorous academic thinking. The entire book integrates theory with practice, presents a rich variety of acupuncture treatment methods, and serves as a valuable reference for future generations.
