The Complete Medicinal Herbal

"I have browsed several books on herbal medicine and treatments. While all suggested herbs for various maladies - none told me how use the herb (root or flower?) or how to make the various ointments, or tinctures or what the common dosage should be. This book was the first I found that does! For anyone curious about the history of herbal medicine and what practical treatments can be used, this is the book to start with!"

"I happened on to this book in a used bookstore, my life hasn't been the same since! This book is a beautifully illustrated book that is very user friendly. I am making things now that I never thought possible! I make all my own tinctures, cough syrups, you name it! Even when I am not looking for anything in particular I love to read this book. A definate must have."

"An excellant resource for anyone seriously looking at the potential benefits of medicinal herbs. Written in an easy to understand layout; the color pictures of healthy specimans provide a key visual aid for those who are attempting to find fresh sources. The home medicine chest is a great basic needs kit, and the entire back of the book has become a weekly resource for my family and my needs. A must have for the medicinal herbal investigator. Thank you, Ms Ody."

"I've been studying herbal medicines and remedies for about a year now, and up until I found this book all I had to go on were old, un-proven folk remedies in folklore books or an article here and there on the newest wonder-herb. It does an excellent job of going over some of the most hopeful and easy-to-find herbs out there, as well as a variety of different uses for each one. Too many times I've read that an herb or flower was only good for one type of decoction, tea, or what have you. This one goes in to great depth. And the charts in the back on how one could go about healing common maladies from headaches to childbirth pains is extremely useful and easy to read. I would recomend this to anyone who has a vested interest in learning about herbal medicine."

"The photographs in this book are an invaluable reference tool. The book also provides recipes for making your own herbal remedies and discusses the various forms in which each herb can be used. I refer to this book all the time!"
