This collection of songs and rhymes composed by Chinese acupuncturists was compiled by the physician Yang Jizhou in 1601. Used both as teaching vehicles and as expressions of the poetry behind the practice of acupuncture, these odes offer a rich insight into the history of acupuncture, as well as practical indications for treatment.
