One of the very best and most readable books that describes the Magic and Medicine of Plants. Excellent photos, plant location, and, as a physician, I found the book to be medically accurate and instructive. Generally we are not aware of the bounty we live in. This book brings the ancient healing arts into focus. I have given this book to a number of my collogues, friends and patients. All agree, that the content and clear writing are superb. Highly recommended.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Very Basic
The information is very basic although abundant. Some herbs were labeled dangerous when in reality the quantities that would make them dangerous would be impossible to consume.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
