This book presents a fun and practical way of learning the functions of acupuncture points on the twelve primary and eight extra channels.. Students are invited to colour and doodle their way through the sequence of images on each channel in turn embellishing anything they find difficult to remember or recall. Through the drawings the author offers her own imaginative visual representation of each point based on translations of the Chinese point names. The text page opposite each set of drawings provides a quick cross reference for the student, with a simple list of the point names and the main functions relating to each. The flexible style of this book accommodates the needs of students from a wide range of schools and traditions. This is an essential learning resource for students of acupuncture, acupressure, shiatsu and massage, and is ideal for revision and self or paired testing.

Informative Book
Although I am a complete acupuncture novice, I enjoyed colouring in this book. I purchased an acupuncture point chart to help me better understand the book. I am now eager to learn more.

Useful but be aware that it's produced by the College ...
Useful but be aware that it's produced by the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine - so if you're studying at a different institution you may find it confusing. Some of the information has varied from what is in my school's manual. I did find it helpful though to just edit the information accordingly - and the colouring pages are a nice break from flash cards and writing out points info again and again. They gave me some inspiration for a shorthand to use when writing out points for rote learning as well.

I'd really recommend this book to anyone learning acupuncture
I'm just about to enter the second year of my acupuncture degree and was finding the huge number of points and functions a little overwhelming to say the least. By using this book and learning one channel, points and functions a week I'm finding it a little more manageable. I'd really recommend this book to anyone learning acupuncture. I wish I'd know about it during my first year, it would have made things far less stressful.

Not very helpful!
As other reviewers have said, you'd be better off creating your own book to help you remember the points. It's a shame because the idea was good. Perhaps someone a bit more savvy will publish something better! A waste of money.

Amazing for acupuncture students!
I rarely post reviews but was extremely excited to receive this coloring book. Memorizing from Deadman's or CAM can be exhausting for any grad student attending a Traditional Chinese Medicine school. This book helps me take mental breaks and lock in the more commonly used points. I brought it to school with me and tons of classmates wanted the book, it's important to support the author and buy this book instead of making photo copies for friends. I tend to use Japanese fine tip pens to color in like juicy or maica but I assume one could use any of the pens folks use for adult coloring books.

Not as helpful as I had thought - Not for TCM students
The book is cute, but quite honestly it is not a great study guide/aid, at least in my opinion. It tries to make up mnemonic rules to help you remember paths and functions, and explains these at far too great a length... The colouring part is absolutely secondary and is just more decorative than functional or even helpful... If I want to relax by colouring, I'll do Mandalas or something like that. I would not recommend this book to any TCM student, far better to just get blank body models and draw the meridians, at the end of the day you will end up knowing what you need in your daily practice and will not need the supposed mnemonics proposed in this book, as you can always access your notes or even watch videos online that give more detailed explanations of meridians and their functions.
