Download or read book Chinese Meridian Massage Family written by Wang Chuangui and published by Ishi Press. This book was released on 2012-01-08 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ishi Press has launched a program where we will be reprinting old, long out of print books in Chinese. These are books that we believe are no longer readily available in China but nevertheless should be preserved. These titles are concerned primarily with Chinese traditional medicine including Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture, Chinese literature and Chinese history plus the Holy Bible translated into Chinese. These books are all entirely in Chinese. Some are in various forms of Simplified Chinese. Others are in Traditional Chinese. These are not translations except that the titles have been translated into English. All of these books were first published before 1998 but after 1949. This is obviously a risky project because there is no assurance that we can sell purely Mainland Chinese books in the USA. Thus, future books will depend on the sales of these books. These 16 Chinese language books are now being reprinted by Ishi Press.
