Abstract:
The Committee for the Meridian Point (Chairman, Kansho Yamada) focused on the significance of “the Meridian denial theory” which Hirohisa Yoneyama announced in 1952. Pros and cons emerged, and the so-called “Meridian controversy” raged for about two years. Documents relating to this controversy along with basic research on the meridian and the meridian point during the period were collected, arranged, examined, and presented at Workshop i of the 51st Annual Meeting of the Japan Society of Acupuncture and Moxibustion which was held in Tsukuba in June 2002. This is a condensed version of the reports.
