This is a really interesting book that I read about 15 years ago, and am currently picking back up. The author was a translator (and wrote the introduction for) Anti-Oedipus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia, who subsequently got involved with Chinese medicine. For a time he was the president of the National Council of Acupuncture Schools and Colleges, and he was a founder of the Tri-State Institute of Traditional Chinese Acupuncture.

This book blends phenomenological psychology and chinese medicine perspectives. In the process, he draws from his radical philosophical influences such as Foucault, Nietzsche, and Deleuze and Guattari towards a new paradigm of health that heals the mind-body split.
