This book complements the author's authoritative "Principles and Practice of Phytotherapy" (2000) and Kerry Bone's "A Clinical Guide to Blending Liquid Herbs" (2003).
As we know more about phytotherapy we realize that we need to know more about herbal safety. Herbal practitioners need the most current and comprehensive information on herbal safety. This book contains that information for 125 common herbs.
The description of the book (above) is accurate in describing this useful reference book. The chapter on "Adverse Herb-Drug Interactions" is especially practical and includes recommended actions.
One other related title (for a more general audience) worth owning is "Complete Guide to Safe Herbs" (DK Publishing, 2002).
