Encyclopedia of Herbal Medicine

Home reference guide to over 550 key herbs with all their uses as remedies for common ailments. Includes the latest scientific research, safety advice, and guidelines on growing, harvesting, and storing medicinal plants.

"In the past, books on herbal medicine have tended to focus either on the traditional and folkloric use of plants or on their active constituents and pharmacology. The Encyclopedia of Herbal Medicine, which features over 550 plants, aims to cover both aspects. It discusses each plant’s history, traditions, and folklore, and explains in simple terms what is known from scientific research about its active constituents, actions, and potential new uses." --Andrew Chevallier
