《象脉学》是形而上脉象学内涵，作者潜心研究，反复梳理，终成该作。内容有症状脉学（传统脉）研究，脏器及其疾病脉学研究，六淫七情脉象研究，流年脉学研究，风水脉象研究，改脉治病研究等内容。意在为脉象研究者或脉学爱好者放飞思想、拓展眼界。书中有关脉中象学的理念抖露了象脉学原理，洞切了气口这一信息窗口的海市蜃楼。 笔者一生勤奋，年似将撕开寸口秘密的窗纸，为人类以脉诊病、察脉治病的原生态医疗不惜苦涩自我，褒贬一生。其对人类医学的贡献虽然淹没在浮躁的今天，但时间将是检验真理的标准。目前笔者致力于该项技艺在世界范围内传播，坚信人类脱离过度医疗的沉荷已经小荷初尖。广大同仁若能慧心顿悟、天机典藏则神奇无限复制。 观其治病：三指轻弹如医院理化仪器，小针若兵，脉气挪移，大病顽疾改象病愈，这是何等的造

Kindergarten-Grade 2?In this early chapter book, Junie, a boisterous, effervescent kindergartner, and her friend Grace invite themselves over to the home of Lucille's wealthy grandmother, with whom the girl and her family live. They agree to help Lucille beg her "richie nanna" for a poodle. Once there, the girls find that everything in the house is exquisite?and untouchable. Lucille's bedspread is silk and her huge stuffed animals cost a fortune. Junie accidentally drops a crystal glass, which shatters into pieces. Her hot dog slides off her fork onto a white Irish linen table cloth. The friends have a good time but Junie is glad to go home to her own nanna's house where she can drink out of a plastic glass and not have to worry about breaking anything. Appealing black-and-white line-and-wash drawings extend the humorous situations. While parts of the story are funny and ring true, Junie's babyish, immature grammar will quickly wear thin.?Janet M.
