Natural Remedies of Arabia

"As someone who has always been interested in herbs and gifts from Nature and their uses, I highly recommend this book. It states how gifts from Nature (e.g. plants, fragrant stones, honey etc) that grow in the Middle East, can be used in the kitchen as well as for healing. It also includes some very interesting Middle Eastern culinary recipes. Though the book mostly gives "hand-me-down" information that has been passed down from generation to generation, it does contain some information on whatever scientific studies were conducted on herbs. It gives some insight into ancient cultures that are little known in the West. The book is easy and fun to read."
