My wife got me this for Christmas a couple of years back, and it have had steady use for it ever since. It contains a brief overview of (broadly speaking) the different traditions of herbalism of the World and then 100 entries on key medicinal plants (I've attached a picture with an example) and 450 lesser entries on other medicinal plants (There's also an example attached). It also contains handy guides for making different herbal remedies. Where the book really shines however is in the inclusion of by aliment, so you can look up an ailment and see what herbs are listed as provided relief against it.

Gives enough detail information with graphics pictures in colors. At the last couple of pages how to make herbal remedies.

There is a lot of great information in this book. Unfortunately my copy arrived damaged.

This was a fantastic gift for my mother in law who is interested in herbalism. It reads like a very user friendly text book. Best part for me is the illustrations, it helped me engage way more with the information. The hardcover and page quality are beautiful. It’s also just information and not “woo woo” for those that matters to. Great purchase!

Fantastic book with so much useful information. Loved it! Bought it twice, once as a gift.
