“A DEFINITIVE VOLUME…
The most comprehensive book on the Chinese healing art, qigong. Related to t’ai chi, qigong is a series of movements designed to bring qi or life-force into the body and encourage it to flow without blockage….The illustrated section of exercises [Cohen] includes shows how qigong can be used for emotional and spiritual as well as physical healing.”
—Patricia Monaghan

“Ken Cohen’s treatment of the ancient healing and self-healing art of qigong represents the ‘gold standard’ against which works on other therapeutic methods might well be measured.”
—Christopher Bird
Coauthor of The Secret Life of Plants and Secrets of the Soil
“Ken Cohen is a rare combination of expert practitioner, gifted scholar, and lucid writer. He manages to convey not only the techniques of qigong, but its wisdom. I highly recommend The Way of Qigong for yourself and for those you care about.”
—Elmer Green, Ph.D.

“Ken Cohen’s mastery of qigong, rooted in a deep understanding of Chinese language and culture, gives him an extraordinary ability to express qigong from the perspectives of East and West. The Way of Qigong is filled with fresh insight and original scholarship. To say that I was amazed by this monumental work would be an understatement!”
—Madame Chu Xing-yan

“THE BEST, MOST COMPREHENSIVE BOOK ON QIGONG WRITTEN.
A must for anyone interested in Chinese medicine or Chinese energy healing.”
—Wayne B. Jonas, M.D.
“The concept of qi, prana, or life energy is universal and transcends every culture in the world. The Way of Qigong is indeed a remarkable encyclopedia. For those interested in optimal health, Ken Cohen’s book allows you an opportunity not only to work with life energy, but to play with it.”
—C. Norman Shealy, M.D., Ph.D.
Founding President American Holistic Medical Association
“A feast of information on the history, theory, and practice of this potent therapy, all in highly digestible bites, flavored with personal experiences and humor. The insights of the West extend and enrich the teachings of the East, particularly in Cohen’s sensitivity to psychological issues which are often handled in a very limited way in other works….Highly recommended for professionals and lay persons who wish to understand this potent healing practice.”
