Pacific College Joins Forces with Prestigious Journal of Chinese Medicine

Pacific College of Oriental Medicine is pleased to announce its partnership with the prestigious Journal of Chinese Medicine as a co-publisher and U.S. distributor of the publication.

The Journal of Chinese Medicine has been the foremost English language journal dedicated to professional and student level information on the entire field of Chinese medicine for over 20 years. The Journal of Chinese Medicine was founded in 1979 at a time when information on acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine was hard to come by. Early issues focused on presenting clear, detailed information on basic Chinese medicine theory to a level unavailable elsewhere in English. Since then, the Journal - like the Chinese medicine profession in the West - has come a long way, and The Journal of Chinese Medicine is now recognized as the premier English language journal on all aspects of Chinese medicine.

The Journal of Chinese Medicine specializes in:
• in-depth articles on the treatment of diseases by acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine
• articles on all aspects of Chinese medicine theory and practice
• abstracts of clinical articles taken from The Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Beijing
• in-depth case reports and analysis; news and information of Chinese medicine world-wide
• reviews of all major new books.

In addition, The Journal of Chinese Medicine also offers a CD-ROM with over 22 years of articles, abstracts, and book reviews from The Journal of Chinese Medicine.

"When The Journal of Chinese Medicine approached Pacific about co-publishing and distributing its U.S. edition, we were glad to have the opportunity to work with such a prestigious publication," said Pacific College President Jack Miller. "This partnership is an excellent opportunity to bring a well respected journal to a wider audience in the States. With Pacific’s experience in producing its own academic newspaper for over a decade, we believed that Pacific and The Journal of Chinese Medicine were a perfect match."

Pacific College will gradually take over subscriptions and advertising for the U.S edition of the publication over the next twelve months. In addition to updating the look of the publication, the college plans to add a section to its newly redesigned website that will allow visitors to learn more about The Journal of Chinese Medicine as well as its current publication, Oriental Medicine. Visitors will be able to subscribe to the publication, update subscription information, view and download samples of past issues, and order The Journal of Chinese Medicine CD-ROM. While the US and European editions will showcase different advertisers, both plan to share the same high-quality content.

Subscriptions to The Journal of Chinese Medicine are $55 for three issues per year. For more information on subscriptions and advertising in the U.S. edition of The Journal of Chinese Medicine, call (800) 729-0941 or go to: www.PacificCollege.edu.
