《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
It’s hard to fall in love with an earnest，appealing young hero like Harry Potter and then to watch helplessly as he steps into terrible danger！ And in J。K.Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets，the much anticipated sequel to the award-winning Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone，he is in terrible danger indeed。As if it’s not bad enough that after a long summer with the horrid Dursleys he is thwarted in his attempts to hop the train to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to begin his second year。But when his only transportation option is a magical flying car，it is just his luck to crash into a valuable （but clearly vexed） Whomping Willow。Still，all this seems like a day in the park compared to what happens that fall within the haunted halls of Hogwarts。 Chilling，malevolent voices whisper from the walls only to Harry， and it seems certain that his classmate Draco Malfoy is out to get him。 Soon it’s not just Harry who is worried about surviva

Hans Augusto "H.A." Rey (September 16, 1898 – August 26, 1977), together with his wife Margret Rey, were the authors and illustrators of children's books, best known for their Curious George series. Hans (who was born Hans Augusto Reyersbach in Hamburg, Germany) and Margret actually met in Brazil, where Hans was a salesman and Margret had gone to escape the rise of Nazism. They married in 1935 and moved to Paris that same year. While in Paris, Hans's animal drawings came to the attention of a French publisher, who commissioned him to write a children's book. The result, Cecily G. and the Nine Monkeys, is little remembered today, but one of its characters, an adorably impish monkey named Curious George, was such a success that the couple considered writing a book just about him. Their work was interrupted with the outbreak of World War II. As Jews, the Reys decided to flee Paris before the Nazis seized the city. Hans built two bicycles, and they fled Paris just a few hours before it fell. Among the mea
There are so many colorful, delicious flavors of ice cream in Mr. Herb's store. Which should George try? Why not a scoop of everything? It doesn't take long for a mischievous monkey to make a mountain of a mess, but Curious George manages to turn chaos into triumph as only he can. 作者简介： Hans Augusto Rey was born in Hamburg, Germany in 1898. As a child, he spent much of his free time in that city's famous Hagenbeck Zoo drawing animals. After serving in the army during World War I, he studied philology and natural science at the University of Hamburg. He then married Margret Rey and they moved to Montmartre for four years. The manu* for the first Curious George books was one of the few items the Reys carried with them on their bicycles when they escaped from Paris in 1940. Eventually, they made their way to the United States, and Curious George was published in 1941. Curious George has been published in many languages, including French, German, Japanese, Afrikaans, and Norwegian. Addition
