While the terminology of the points follows Chinese standards for acupuncture, the body parts are named following up-to-date anatomical nomenclature, and the description of trigger points also mentions the respective muscle and pain projection zones.

Please try again later. I have found this book very useful for certain points. Unfortunately the Body Acupuncture Points section only covers about points and does not cover all the points I need. The drawings and pictures, as well as the information provided on these points, are very good. I like the fact that not only do they have drawings but actual human body pictures locating the points, and it does show most of the points on these pictures, even though it does not name or describe them. Some additional points are shown in Section 3, Trigger Points, but that section is basically by muscle or section and the points come incidental to treatment and are not listed in the index so it is not easy to find them.
Also the information on these points is limited to a diagram and a brief description of location so it is useful only for treating the particular trigger point. This section is the largest section in the book and covers 35 muscles or muscle groups. The information provided in this section appears to be very good. Part 2 of the book, Ear Acupuncture, is very good and probably would rate five stars. I would probably buy this book again because it is very good for the covered areas with useful concise information, but it is limited.
If it covered more points, it would definitely be a five star book. If you are looking for a fairly complete illustration and description of meridians and acupuncture points, this is not the book for you. If you order this atlas, you are getting a handy 5 x 7 inch, page paperback in which only points clearly marked with indications and actions.

Also, there is no complete picture of a body with all meridians labelled. It's sort of like getting an atlas of the world that only shows one continent at a time and then leaves out Antarctica, Botswana and Khazakstan because, in the opinion of the editor, they don't contribute all that much to the rest of world. If you're just a beginner or intermediate delving into this topic, there are probably other, better, much cheaper guides. The book does, however, do some things well. For instance, it describes the anatomy that underlies certain acupuncture points, suggests needling depths and gives a description of cun measurement that may be helpful.
Color Atlas of Acupuncture: Body Points, Ear Points, Trigger Points
It also shows some points on the meridians on an actual photographs of people. An entire section is devoted to showing various points on musculature. It also has a whole section devoted to trigger points and their relationships to various acupuncture points. The indexes are very handy.
I can't comment on the ear point section, as that is something with which I am not familiar enough to give a good review. Kindle Edition Verified Purchase.
