Jeanne Rose's Herbal Body Book pairs a wide variety of ailments with possible plant cures. Each plant recommended is described in anecdotal detail. This book includes recipes for the newcomer and expert. It also includes a glossary of specialized terms, herbs, and recipes. Everything you need from hair products to belly salve for a pregnant woman is inside this most useful companion. Jeanne Rose encourages the reader to make your own blend of herbs to target specific conditions and not only follow a limited number of recipes.

USER REVIEWS

"Indeed Jeanne Rose knows her herbal stuff from experience, gathered over more than thirty years as a professional herbalist. The 2000 edition that I got (the one described on this page) is awesome: there's a glossary of herbs, of pharmacology terms, of health conditions that can be helped with herbs. The author provides recipes for making different ointments and mixtures for beauty and health conditions but she also gives in her book enough information for the reader to actually mix up her own ingredients and create an original perfume, or mask or lotion. She knows how to impart her knowledge with generosity. It's a reference book and fun to read as well."

"I'm 14 years old, and am just discovering the world of herbs, and ofcosmetics. I found this book very useful in both areas, because of thewonderful descripitons, and the useful, simple recipies. Oh, also, the version I read was the 1976 version (from the library of course) so I imagine that this newly updated copy is even better!"
