Chinese Medicine on the Web- Updates

Posted on September 21, 2009 by Yael2 Comments

cm_on_webIt’s been a while since I last talked about some of the new things that are happening on the Internet where Chinese medicine is concerned.
To be honest- it’s been a while since I last wrote here, and I’m a bit rusty!
But, I’m ont worried. I’m sure I’ll get back into shape in a post or two.

To kick things off- a wonderful piece of news from Richard Goodman, the author of Classical Chinese Medical Texts:
If you have a PayPal account, you can now pre-order both volumes of CCMT, pay $55.95 and shipping is free.
That’s right, shipping is free. Ah, that’s great news if you ask me. Living outside the USA or Europe means that you pay extra for shipping, and then when you think about customs… oy.
This offer is good until CCMT volume 2 is out, on October, then the price goes up to $59.95, but shipping is still free.
I urge you to visit Richard’s website and check out the free on-line course that helps one read the book and make better use of it, this way it can help you decide whether these books are good for you or not.

rick_2The first me I heard Richard Goodman’s name was through a comment on a previous post about books here on CMNotes.
AncinetDoc mentioned Richard’s book, and I started sniffing around.
Pretty soon I started following Richard on a regular basis through his blog and through Twitter, mainly because he talks about interesting things, and also because he’s really a nice guy.

Richard, 34, started law school and switched to his true calling, studying Chinese medicine.
His journey is an interesting one, one that took him from the USA to Taiwan and got him writing books to help people read and understand the classical Chinese texts, such as Classical Chinese Medical Texts Vol. I.
Vol. II is in the making as I write this post.

bookA quick note to let you know about the free on-line course with Richard Goodman.
Richard is the author of the book Classical Chinese Medical Texts- Vol. I (volume II is in the making!).
On July 15th 2009, he will begin an on-line course which actually accompanies the book, 15 lessons- one for each chapter. More info, as I copied it from WindPress:

Beginning July 15th, Richard Goodman will teach a FREE 15 week course for Classical Chinese Medical Texts Vol I. We are doing this because we want people to use the book! The course will be hosted on this website and the material for each week will have it’s own web page so that all of the material is available in one place. Additionally, you will be able to make comments and ask questions directly related to each week’s material. If you are a late arrival or fall behind, the material will remain so that you can follow along at your own pace. There is no need to sign up or register”.
