While Westerners refer to acupuncture points by numbers, the Chinese refer to them by names that reflect their location, function, affiliations, or relationships, which tell students something about the clinical utilization of a point, or help them remember an important feature of its use. This work provides an ideal resource for those engaged in the study of Chinese medical language. It facilitates learning the root vocabulary of acupoints and what the points do within the conceptual system of Chinese medicine. The introduction contains a highly useful overview of the types of names chosen to denote and categorize the point in Chinese, such as locational association, metaphoric association, and functional association. In addition it provides useful advice for effective and ongoing acquisition of Chinese medical terminology. Each of 100 characters that are common to acupoint vocabulary is introduced in simplified and complex forms. Significs and stroke counts, commonly used equivalents, character composition, explanation of meaning, and examples of character combinations are included. The stroke sequence showing how to write the character is presented, and space for students to practice writing the characters is provided. The appendix contains a systematic list of channel point names which are exclusively comprised of characters introduced in this book and in Volume One. You can use this for review purposes. When you have mastered these two books, you will be amazed at how many point names you can read!

According to the sacred calendar of the Mayan and Toltec civilizations of Mesoamerica, 2012 signifies the end of a "Great Cycle" of more than five thousand years, the conclusion of one world age and the beginning of the next. The hypothesis the author proposes is that the completion of the Great Cycle and the return of Quetzalcoatl are archetypes, and their underlying meaning points toward a shift in the nature of the psyche. Humanity faces an imminent decision between greater self-potential and catastrophic ruin. A potential transformation of consciousness on this scale would lead to the rapid creation, development, and dissemination of new institutions and social structures, corresponding to new levels of mind and a harmonic, even utopian, situation on the earth.
Such a radical proposition might not seem to match the current direction of world affairs. However it is the author's view that such a transition can be approached sensibly, and has in fact been carefully prepared by our history. At the same time, our active engagement is required to make it happen. A change in the nature of the psyche would be at first a subtle and invisible process, yet eventually such a mind shift would have results in the physical world just as real as current headline events. Intriguing and well-researched, this is a kaleidoscopic tour de force through the range of philosophy and consciousness that weaves together the realms of human imagination and the harsh realities of incipient global catastrophe. Pinchbeck's inner journey is compelling, familiar, and redemptive, his conclusions robust, original, and optimistic.
