That doesn't happen very often (unless you're a Harry Potter fan...). I envy you and Ross for your wonderful experience with Dr. Hammer. I'm sure you both got more than you know from him. Thanks for your comment, Yael Hi Abdallah,

I still didn't get the chance to read the links, although I think I recommended one of those links here in a previous post. Thanks for your comment, Yael Hi Ross,

Stickley Thu, 26 Jun 2008 18:02:08 +0000 http://www.chinesemedicinenotes.com/?p=108#comment-388 Yael, Thanks for posting this great review of Dr. Hammer's book. Sadly it is probably read more by psychologists than acupuncture practitioners. I read this book in my first semester in acupuncture school, and I knew that it represents the most complete picture of how one can plumb the depths of human experience through Chinese Medicine. So it was an incredible honor when after many years of close collaboration, Dr. Hammer asked me to teach the first ever course based on this material. I hope you enjoy the articles Ross sent you, and as he also noted we're very excited to begin offering more information though the internet and teaching. What most people fail to grasp is the incredible clinical depth of the ideas in DRRBF. It can revolutionize the way one practices Chinese medicine. I re-read the book every year, and it produces new insights each time. Yael,

Having been very lucky to study with Dr. Hammer and be in close contact with him has been invaluable to my success as a practitioner, and the material in DRRBF is an integral part of my practice; integrating the pulse (Contemporary Chinese Pulse Diagnosis) and DRRBF and other theories of CM into what we call COM (Contemporary Oriental Medicine). In the articles that I have written with my colleague Brandt Stickley, we have begun to demonstrate the clinical applications of this material into patient management. I think I sent you the links the other day to those articles. Seeing and understanding how the patient experiences their own imbalances is key to this process and then establishing the therapeutic relationship on those grounds. It is a must read (and re-read; I read it often and learn more each time I do). Thanks for highlighting this book on CMNotes. I hope it will turn others on to this treasure. And as I mentioned to you the other day, my upcoming venture with Brandt will shed much more light on this information in the form of online teachings. Talk to you soon, Ross Hi Yael,
