Bücher von Wang

Dieses Buch entstand aus der Zusammenarbeit von Wang Ju-Yi, einem führenden Gelehrten, Lehrer und Arzt in China und seinem US-amerikanischen Schüler Jason Robertson. Das Buch zeigt die essentielle Beziehung zwischen Organphysiologie und der therapeutischen Anwendung der Meridiane. Durch die Darstellung der von Dr. Wang entwickelten Palpationsmethode wird die Brücke zwischen diesen beiden Themen geschaffen, was in der Folge zu einer präziseren Lokalisierung und Auswahl der Punkte führt. Praktische Meridiantheorie in der Chinesischen Medizin erhielt 2008 von der Deutschen Wissenschaftlichen Gesellschaft für TCM die Auszeichnung als bestes TCM-Buch.

Wang Wei was one of the most celebrated poets of China's Tang Dynasty (618-907). An influential painter and practitioner of Chan (Zen) Buddhism, many of his poems contain concise and evocative descriptions of nature whose elegant minimalism offers subtle expression of a transcendence from everyday life. While this purity of poetic expression is what Wang Wei's reputation is built upon, he lived a courtly life of highs and lows in a tumultuous era, suffering demotions and exile, imprisonment and rehabilitation, all of which are evidenced in his verse. Wang Wei's poems grapple with the trappings of worldly life and the quest for enlightenment, painting a complex picture of both his psyche and his Chan discipline. Laughing Lost in the Mountains includes translations of poems running the spectrum of Wang Wei's subjects, as well as an extensive introduction that sheds light on Wang Wei's craft, spirituality, and historical context.
