Great for herbs, great for complete health by Steph D. (Florida) 5 Stars
January 10, 2009
I found this book to be great for what I bought it for (to learn more about herbs), but also as a great guide for all-around health. The book brought something to my attention that I was surprised I had not realized before...that herbs won't do you any good if you don't take proper care of yourself with a healthy diet and exercise regimen. I found Chapter 1 (Balance: The Key to Health) extremely useful and enlightening. As I read it, so many things became clear to me about being truly healthy that I felt the need to start running copies of the short chapter and passing them out to friends and family! The large section on herbs is also just as great...explaining uses as well as doses, biochemical properties, flavors, etc. I could go on and on about this book, but instead I will just say: read it for yourself! :)

Awesome introduction by E. Bender (Seattle, WA) 5 Stars

I am a midwifery student just getting into herbalism. My best friend is an herbalist, so I knew a little bit going in. This book is a fantastic introduction. The basics are laid out in a really straight-forward and helpful manner. Once you start getting comfortable with it, the reference bit is fantastic for quickly finding things. Michael Tierra does a fantastic job of walking the line between mysticism and science. He provides enough of the physical workings of the herbs to satisfy a rational mind, but doesn't lose track of the spiritual connection.

A must have for any herbalist library! 5 Stars

Mr. Tierra's reference on herbs is a wonderful addition to my collection. I would strongly recommend it to those who are just starting out in herbology as a first book, or to those who are seasoned pros...This is also a text for many schools of natural medicine
