2.0 out of 5 stars Alright, but there are better books, February 20, 2000

By A Customer

This is the only one of Ms. Morrison's books that I can actually recommend, but at the same time, there are much better books on herbalism such as Scott Cunningham's "Magical Herbalism" and "Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs."

2.0 out of 5 stars Not Enough Information, March 7, 2000

By	Kris Gammon (Desert Southwest USA) - See all my reviews

While this book may work as a primer for those who are new to herbs, there just is not enough information for someone to effectively use herbal formulas. And there is a serious lack of information on how to correctly use herbs. Blood cleaners such as Burdock, Sarsaparilla, Red Clover, and Sassafras need to be used wisely, which means making sure elimination channels are open properly before flooding the body with toxins and waste matter these herbs break lose in the body. There are glaring errors in this book which leads me to believe this author does not know herbs well at all. Cayenne does NOT cause severe kidney damage as the author states. The statement that the readers are not "smart enough to use this remedy for too long without medical advice" is ludicrous. Another drawback is the lack of an index to quickly locate herbs references.

It's simple and too the point, and chalk full of information on herbs and their uses. Every beginner should look into this book.
