No color pics but a great book
I had this book when I was a kid and it used to have color photos in it and was much larger. Was disappointed this one was paperback sized but I still use it as a quick reference for anything from colds to what plants give you natural energy. Highly recommend for anyone interested in natural remedies.

VERY GOOD BOOK FOR HEALING ILLNESSES NATURALLY.
I like this book very much. It has very many solutions in it which are available for many illnesses. I had this book before, however I lost it somehow. That is why I ordered it once more. I like it for the History, original name, what it can be used for as a cure, and the cations of every Herb listed inside of this book.

Un testo completo, ottimo acquisto
Si tratta di un testo veramente completo, che affronta il tema delle erbe medicinali in modo abbastanza approfondito. Ha 625 pagine ed è costituito da sei capitoli, che trattano, nell'ordine: la storia della medicina naturale, la sicurezza, preparazione (infusi, decotti, tinture...) e conservazione, la raccolta e la coltivazione, 100 erbe medicinali comuni (usi, dosi, storia), una guida veloce per problema. È un libro completo e allo stesso tempo sintetico, dice tutte le cose più importanti. Accanto agli usi di ogni pianta e ai disturbi per i quali è utile, si trovano le preparazioni con le relative dosi e indicazioni. Un'ulteriore nota positiva: l'autore insiste molto sulla sicurezza, che in questo campo non è mai sbagliato. Consigliato, anche e soprattutto a chi si avvicina al mondo dei rimedi naturali per la prima volta. L'unica nota, per ogni pianta è presente un'immagine in bianco e nero: per chi voglia imparare a riconoscere le erbe selvatiche, suggerirei di integrare con un corso o altri testi. Scritto in lingua inglese.

Great book
Great knowledge of herbs. I only read few pages and already found out lot of interesting things - which I didn't know despite of my interest in herbal remedies. It gives a little bit of history first (enough to enlighten the reader but not bore) and then it has a form of encyclopedia, what makes it easy to find the herb's description. It has index on the end so you can also search illness first. One of those old books full of knowledge so interesting but forgotten by us. Definite "must-be" in every herbalist's library.

Excellent buy and useful tool.
very comprehensive and detailed guide to herbs/history/methods of use/where to find/how to grow invaluable if you want to start using herbs or just learning about them. Essentially it's an A to Z bible of herbs but would be nice if they made an updated 2015 version as this was made in 1991. fantastic book could not recommend it more.
