4 out of 5 stars A great book on the background of Qigong   September 21, 2008
I found this book to be a great read. Interesting background on Qigong, it's history, an explanation of the "why" of Qigong, and just a general overview of Qigong. It does not explain specifically any Qigong exercises, just gives you a broad picture so would be helpful in starting ones journey into Qigong. A great starting off point but look to other books for actual exercises and practices.


4 out of 5 stars It is easy to understand   May 5, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I got a copy just in time for my Qigong classes. It is easy to understand, the language is very clear, the information is valuable. Most of the books witten by Chinese authors and translated to English ou Spanish or Portuguese look like they are hiding details and valuable information. That is not the case with this book. I am very satisfied with it and now I want to buy other books from the same author. If you starting a new life with Qigong, this is the right book.


5 out of 5 stars Something to truly study and use your whole life!   March 14, 2008

This is THE comprehensive in-depth reference which weaves modern day scientific method and physics with ancient and reveared knowledge and training methods. I highlighted the heck out of my first copy so as to better comprehend the relationship of everything he uncovers. Its not a book you can just breeze through and feel satisfied; but rather find the true meaning in each section, then comes the real satisfaction. A MUST HAVE for any serious meditator. It opens the door for every other deep aspect in any form of meditation and life pursuit.


5 out of 5 stars Good so far   February 1, 2008

I've just made my way to chapter 3, so far very informative. QiGong is so good, that it has been hidden. It's only recently gaining real popularity in the West. This book is a must buy for anyone seriously interested in this amazing Art. By the way, it's a little cheaper here than at Barnes & Noble.
