Guest guest Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 Dear Colleagues, I think many of you know something about me; but let me just say that I've been practicing and studying Chinese traditional medicine for 30 years in San Francisco beginning in Great Britain in 1972 with Jack Worsley. I co-authored a book--Between Heaven and Earth--with my wife and closest colleague, Harriet Beinfield and we have also formulated a line of chinese herbal products known as Chinese Modular Solutions which are manufactured and distributed by Kan Herb Company. I have done a considerable amount of teaching over the years within schools of Chinese medicine and without authored dozens of article and chapters in books on the subject of Chinese traditional medicine as well as spreading the good news through interviews on radio, television, print media and various conferences. Currently I am engaged in a collaborative project in Cuba with Cuban acupuncturists and Natural and Traditional Medicine specialists to teach Chinese traditional medicine to Cuban physicians and medical school residents as well as graduates of the Latin American Medical School (which provides medical education for free to 7000 students from poor, medically underserved countries). I also helped to co-found, in the last three years, a non-profit organization, NOMADOCS (www.nomadocs.org), whose mission is to help people in medically underserved communities within the U.S. and in other parts of the world develop their own health care institutions using Chinese traditional medicine and related nautral and traditional therapies as the foundation for safe, effective, low tech, and low cost medical care....I hope this suffices. Thank you for your invitation to join--I look forward to participating in the CHA forum.... Se a fuerte y se a bien.

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2003 Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 , " kenrose2008 " Ken, Thanks for your hearty welcome...I dont know about dancing however; when I was last in Cuba (a few weeks ago) I did some vigorous Salso dancing at an afternoon party and sprained my hip! (I guess there's always a first time, eh...) Having been inundated recently with PUU's profound and provocative historical investigations, I dont seem to have much to say on the subject of Chinese medicine--I'm sure something will come to me eventually.... efrem <kenrose2008> wrote: > Efrem, > > Welcome to the dance! > > I look forward to your input into what > is probably the most spirited and > certainly the longest conversation I've > ever had about Chinese medicine. > > There are an awul lot of incredibly > insightful people taking part in this > ongoing discussion, and I always find > it to be a truly enlightening pasttime. > > I may give it up entirely, however, > and devote myself to the study of > attic Greek. > > Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
