"The science of acupuncture and moxibustion is an important part of traditional Chinese medicine. For thousands of years the Chinese people have appreciated it for its nonpharmaceutical treatment, simple application, wide range of use, good curative effect, and low cost.

As part of Chinese science and culture acupuncture and moxibustion have long been known in the world as a result of cultural exchange between China and other countries. However, a global interest in acupuncture and moxibustion and special enthusiasm for the subject have been growing in the past dozen years. To offer further service to the other people and help acupuncture and moxibustion enrich the world's science and culture, the Ministry of Public Health of China established three international acupuncture training centres in research institutes and colleges of traditional Chinese medicine in Beijing, Shangai and Nanjing with the support of the Office of the Western Pacific Region of the United Nations' World Health Organization. More than 1,000 foreign students from 120 countries and regions have been trained there in less than ten years. With their strong thirst for knowledge these students were not satisfied with their basic understanding and sought more detailed information. To meet their needs, the three training centres have organized advanced training and research courses.

Chinese Acupuncture and Moxibustion, the textbook for these advanced courses, was compiled by the three training centres, under the supervision of the Ministry of Public Health, in accordance with their teaching programme, acupuncture theory and clinical experiences. Professor Cheng Xinnong, wellknown specialist of Chinese acupuncture and moxibustion, headed the editorial board for the compilation of this book. Both the Chinese and English editions of Chinese Acupuncture and Moxibustion were examined and revised by a number of specialists before publication.

Based on Essentials of Chinese Acupuncture and supplemented by the results of many yeard of teaching and clinical experience, Chinese Acupuncture and Moxibustion was continually revised, substantiated and perfected. As a valued scientific gift from the home of acupuncture and moxibustion, this book, we hope, will be a good teacher and helpful friend to students and practitioners of acupuncture and moxibustion in the world."
