The book introduces the etiology and pathogenesis, diagnostic highlights, syndrome differentiation and treatment, selection of acupuncture points and therapeutic scheme for 69 kinds of musculoskeletal injuries with commentary, acupuncture points with pictures and clinical explanations. It also records the manipulation, needling direction and depth, body position, time for needle retention as well as course of treatment. The final part describes the therapeutic efficacy, the best treatment time for the disease and other matters that need attention both during and after treatment. It not only introduces empirical therapeutic schemes of acupuncture and moxibustion, but also discusses the external application of Chinese medicinals for the diseases that don't respond well to acupuncture therapy. It is really a pragmatic reference book for clinical acupuncturists.
