Comments:
This book is very comprehensive and covers four different domains of Qigong practice. The hand mudras for practicing Qigong is the first I've seen in Qigong manuals.
Although Mantak uses some mudras to open the palm chakras which is very good too.

This book is interesting to those who have a mind that likes to scientific proof. There are some interesting experients and observations by Dr. Yayama.

If you are looking for a handbook for Qi therapy that is rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine this is it. The book has charts on the ear, hand and foot for diagnosis. Discusses how energy is moved by hand movements over a meridian or point and hand mudras for concentrating energy for the element needed to be moved.
