Produktbeschreibungen
From Library Journal
This attractive herbal is one of the best this reviewer has seen. A brief history of herbal medicine leads into a dictionary of 130 herbs, all well illustrated both as growing plants (with close-ups of leaves, roots, berries, and flowers where appropriate) and in prepared forms (dried stems, powders, etc.) Charts describe a wide range of ailments and the appropriate home remedies. The book also includes excellent instructions on preparing herbs for use. If your copy of Miriam Polunin and Christopher Robbins's The Natural Pharmacy ( LJ 8/92) is always checked out, buy this book too. Both works are good and quite similar, but Ody's book covers fewer plants in greater depth than The Natural Pharmacy.

I've enjoyed every aspect of this book. The visuals and photo's are so rich you can nearly smell the herbs. A great coffee table book if for nothing else, but thats not to underestimate the content. In a precise and well organized way, the author gives the most important information on the use of herbs. I particularly like to see the "action" of an herb ingrediant on the body system. I find that more useful than a recommendation. This book is full of good scientific info, as well as the history and lore of herbs. Well organized, thought out and informative. I just love it. Thanks :-)

this herbology book is explained in a manner that should get awarded for it. because every herb is first of all shown in all of its forms:leaves\oil\seeds\root,and anointment and all of this with the essence of qualities and medicine properties of any part of the herba very recommanded book as well as who need to be away from that herb (special conditions such as pregnancy).what is more beautiful of it that it is explained essencely in one page only for every herb, and believe me that the author says a lot on one colorful and well explained page(and book)the history of the herbalism and homeopathy are also explained. a chapter of how to prepare natural medicines from herbs in your own kitchen is also in this exelant book,and a section that showed what kinds of diseases are helped by specific herbs.

As a practicing herbalist and herbal teacher I cannot recommend this book highly enough. I have given out several copies as gifts over the years and have urged my students to get a copy for their personal libraries. The photographs of the herbs and the easy reference sidebars makes this the perfect book for beginners and aging experts. Thought not as comprehensive as some herbals in print, it is far more practical and useful then 90 percent of the material being touted as herbals. I hope Ms. Ody updates this wonderful book in the near future.
