Yu-mei Wen Boeken

Master Wen Mei Yu always knew about the healing effects of Liangong, but it took a car accident to show her just how powerful it could be. When other methods failed, Liangong worked wonders on an ailing back and neck that caused constant pain. Amazed with the results, Master Yu began exploring the many benefits of this modern health exercise which was developed from ancient medical movement techniques from China's past. An International Champion in China, Master Yu has broken down the Liangong system into two Series One systematically works down the body from head to toe as it strengthens, stretches, and increases the range of motion of specific areas; Series Two works the whole body while focusing on joints, tendons, or internal organs. And best of all, the exercises can be performed in the comfort of your home or office in as little as 20 minutes.

With the vast number of hepatitis patients and asymptomatic carriers in China, the control and eradication of the disease has become a crucial public health task. This volume presents material regarding the etiology, pathology, clinical features, epidemiology and control of viral hepatitis that have emerged in response to this challenge. Several chapters detail basic studies by leading Chinese investigators on hepatitis B virus, cloning and expression of viral strains, viral replication in vivo and in vitro, immune responses against HBV, liver cancer and HBV, and duck HBV as an animal model. Clinical studies on viral hepatitis and infantile hepatitis as well as treatments integrating modern and traditional methods are reported in further chapters. In addition, epidemiology and preventive strategies for hepatitis A, B and E are discussed, with emphasis on vaccination and disinfection.
