I bought this for someone who loves learning about plant medicine. They absolutely loved it! It us a great value!

  • Beautiful book, but organized by scientific names
I'd love to give this book a 5-star review, but I can't because of what I consider a major flaw. The herbs are listed in alphabetical order by their scientific name rather than their common name. This means that I have to use the index to find the page an herb is on. Not practical for those of us who don't think of herbs as their scientific name first. Other than that major flaw, the book is beautiful and packed with info. It's worth having in my library but unfortunately isn't the "go to" I had hoped it would be. ... show more
