5.0 out of 5 stars 560 herbs and remedies!

It is a beautiful book, full of interesting information, not just on the herbs but also the history of herbal medicine. There are nearly 50 pages describing how herbal medicine developed in different countries, which is fascinating. Each herb is described in detail, followed by their key preparations and uses and the illustrations are beautiful. I already have several books on Herbal Medicine but I think this one will become my favourite.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Love This Book!

This is a must-have for anyone venturing into herbs and herbal medicine. This is perfect if you want to start practicing and mixing herbs. I love that you can find herbs from pretty much every corner of the globe covered in this book. My only frustration is when I've leant something and want to put it into action, I sometimes can't find anywhere to buy the herbs concerned.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book - badly organised

M.Q. · 24 May 2024

Great content - though why they thought it was a good idea to alphabetise/order by Latin names is beyond me, very annoying and just makes it harder to find the information you need.

T.L.W.B. · 21 May 2025

Highly recommended. Everything is separated out into either ailment or herb depending on what you're looking for, and warnings/allergies are included in each explanation. A definite addition to any Herbalist's bookshelf!
