Duke, Ph.D., delivers the lowdown on virtually every healing herb available in today's marketplace: its description and history, therapeutic uses, medicinal properties, prescription counterparts, dosage options, safety and effectiveness rating, and precautions. Dr. Duke's inimitable folksy tone and friendly manner shine throughout The Green Pharmacy Herbal Handbook , making it as entertaining to read as it is practical. The most thorough and comprehensive herb reference of its kind, the handbook was culled from the thousands of entries in Dr. Duke's database of the world's medicinal plants. The database, which he began during his career as a top botanist with the USDA, is a lifelong project for Dr. Duke and has become a major reference resource for herbalists worldwide. Review: Easy to read and understand - Easy to read and use. I use 2 of the herbs this book recommended. One of the herbs helped with my heart issues. Review: We refer to this book often - We are trying to find alternatives to some medications which cause side effects. This handbook has been very helpful, and we always check with our doctor before adding any herb to our regimen. Our 9-year old granddaughter gets very car sick, and we read about ginger for motion sickness. Her doctor OK'd it, we bought some chewable "Ginger Trips" for her, and it worked like a charm. Please read the cautions for each herb, though, as some can be dangerous when combined with certain prescription meds such as blood thinners etc. Our pharmacist has also been very helpful in guiding us. Sure wish American medicine practiced more herbal treatments instead of prescriptions with sometimes very bad side effects. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 1579541844 | | Best Sellers Rank | #86,879 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #75 in Naturopathy Medicine #161 in Herbal Remedies (Books) #3,892 in Medical Books (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (309) | | Dimensions | 6.5 x 0.79 x 9.13 inches | | Edition | First Edition | | ISBN-10 | 9781579541842 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1579541842 | | Item Weight | 11.6 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 282 pages | | Publication date | December 15, 2000 | | Publisher | Rodale Books | ## Images ![The Green Pharmacy Herbal Handbook: Your Comprehensive Reference to the Best Herbs for Healing - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81PnvfyJozL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to read and understand *by A***N on January 20, 2026* Easy to read and use.

This handbook has been very helpful, and we always check with our doctor before adding any herb to our regimen.

Book on medicinal herbs and it was just as good as the previous 2 *by J***S on May 5, 2014* My 3rd purchase of a James Duke Book on medicinal herbs and it was just as good as the previous 2. A solid 5 star rating for information, scope, and his usual smattering of humor, laced with the random anecdotal comment on his vast range of experiences chasing the medicinal flora of the world . A must for everyone new to herbal medicine and certainly useful and informative to the more experienced, bridging the gap between clinical practitioner and home health practitioner. Would love to talk plants to the Man. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Green Pharmacy Herbal Handbook: Your Comprehensive Reference to the Best Herbs for Healing - The Green Pharmacy: The Ultimate Compendium Of Natural Remedies From The World's Foremost Authority On Healing Herbs - The Green Pharmacy: New Discoveries in Herbal Remedies for Common Diseases and Conditions from the World's Foremost Authority on Healing Herbs --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/18028276-the-green-pharmacy-herbal-handbook-your-comprehensive-reference-to-best](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/18028276-the-green-pharmacy-herbal-handbook-your-comprehensive-reference-to-best) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-10-17*
