Neuro-Acupuncture is one of the first comprehensive Neuroscience based Acupuncture books written by a group of scientists in the fields of Neuro-Radiologic Physics, Neuro-Ophthalmology, as well as Neuro-Anatomists and Physiologists. The principal author of the book, Zang-Hee Cho, Ph.D., the professor of Radiological Sciences and Psychiatry at University of California at Irvine, is one of the leading neuro-imaging scientists and inventor of the PET (Positron Emission Tomography). He is a world-renowned MRI physicist, who has pioneered numerous MRI imaging techniques including the first Acupuncture -fMRI technique in 1997. The book Neuro-Acupuncture is written for both the acupuncturists who are interested in learning neural basis of acupuncture mechanisms as well as for the physicians who are interested in learning acupuncture in terms of modern neuroscience point of view. The book is written in such a way that it is readily readable for the newcomers as well as for those who have some previous exposure to modern neuroscience. To make the book more readily understandable for the newcomers, many illustrations are given, some in repetition, to enhance the consolidation of memory of many new exotic neuroscience nomenclatures. Neuro-Acupuncture is the first textbook illustrating the interpretation of Acupuncture from a Neurological perspective. This extraordinary textbook provides the essentials to modern Neuroscience and its relationship to the field of Acupuncture. The extensive research compiled for Neuro-Acupuncture clearly demonstrates that Acupuncture stimulation leads to activation of upper parts of the brain. Undoubtedly, understanding the scientific bases of Acupuncture can improve its clinical effectiveness. Initial studies with such techniques as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Positron Emission Tomography (PET), and Magneto- Encephalography (MEG) have discovered effects of Acupuncture on neural correlates. These studies have
