 Good Resource October 12, 2007

Good resource book on hundreds of medicinal herbs. This is a book I use to determine whether a particular plant has medicinal uses or not. It is also good to find the actions and uses of less common medicinal herbs. For the more common medicinal herbs, I turn to other books as this one is not thorough enough for me. Good book to have for the herbalist and is one of my texts for clinical herbal medicine.
 Excellent Book! July 14, 2007

This is an excellent book if you would like to learn more about natural remedies and how to use them to treat various ailments. The pictures and illistrations are wonderful. There is so much information packed into this book. The only draw back it that the herbs are not listed in alphabetic order (they are in order if you know the scientific name) so you have to use the index a lot, but that's not so bad. A great book to have in anyone's natural remedy library.
Beautiful as well as informative May 14, 2007

This book is organized in an easy to use logical manor. A lot of information with beautiful illustrations for each herb are in easy to view sections and all on one page. Step by Step instructions on how to make products are easy to understand and follow. The Historical section is an added bonus. There is a number of different glossaries and indexes so things may be looked up in different ways (e.g.: by ailment or plant name)that may bit confusing until you get use to it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this book to anyone. It is a beautiful and informative addition to any library.
Lovely pics, needs more! April 3, 2007

I like how this book has color photos of many of the herbs and that it includes instructions on how to make remedies as well. The extended list in the back had some photos, but I wish it would have had one for all of the listed herbs to make it more complete. Worth the money!
My medicinal herb bible November 29, 2006

I have used herbal medications exclusively for about 10 years now, and I depend on this book as my herb "bible." It is always smart to double-check medicinal advice from several sources, but I have never found this book to be wrong or lacking in pertinent information. It is very well arranged, and information is cross-referenced which adds to the ease of use.
