The Spark in the Machine: How the Science of Acupuncture Explains the Mysteries of Western Medicine | Daniel Keown
Confronting skeptics and arguing that Western physicians cannot afford to ignore over 5000 years of Chinese medical tradition, Dr. Daniel Keown challenges the popular belief that acupuncture cannot be part of truly scientific medicine. With a radical new approach which ties together Western medicine and the Chinese energetic system, The Spark in the Machine will take you on a journey over billions of years to the outer realms of medical science to explain what the ancient Chinese always knew, but God forgot to tell surgeons... For anyone who has had to defend Chinese medicine at a dinner party, or who turns to acupuncture to fight migraines, this book will provide both answers and a glimpse of the potential for Western and Chinese medicine to work together.
