It has historically been very difficult to trace the history of the westward transmission of Chinese medicine through the accounts of its protagonists.Many of the early scholars such as Jack Worsley,Dick Van Buren,and Joe Goodman were reluctant to divulge information about the source of their knowledge,or their professional qualifications.Others,such as John Shen and Hong Yuan-bain were early 20th century immigrants who transmitted highly personalized versions of acupuncture and Chinese medicine to select disciples.Eventually,a new class of scholars appeared,including names such as Ted Kaptchuk,Peter Deadman,Nigel Wiseman,William Morris,Peter Eckman,John McDonald,Charles Buck,and the late Giovanni Maciocia who looked for answers back in China,developed translation methodologies and terminology,compiled the main textbooks currently in use at TCM colleges,overcame enormous scholastic adversity,developed courses and pursued the regulation and accreditation of TCM in various countries.This special issue synopsizes the path towards the global acculturation of TCM over the last 50 years,the main protagonists,the enormous accomplishments they have achieved for the profession,their philosophy,their clinical perspectives and visions for the future.
