"This text is required for my TCM program to earn my acupuncture degree. I've found it to be one of my favorite textbooks that I've had to buy so far. Its informative, clearly organized, and thorough. Information on the herbs include the properties, a picture, main functions organized in order of importance, and some interesting 'comments' about them as well. All the herbs are organized by category. My only complaint is how heavy it is to carry to class but what can you do? It should hopefully be the only Materia Medica that I will have to buy during the whole program!"

"While the information is excellent, there are so many printing errors that it is laughable. How could so many mistakes make it into publication, especially at the price charged? I hope future editions can rectify this seemingly easy problem, again before it sold as a product."

"Great Book for anyone who is a novice or even a Chinese Physician. I have a few other Herbal Reference but once I got this Book, it is always the first choice whenever I need to look out for a particular chinese herb.
Worth every penny I paid for!"
