Reader Reviews:brilliant (13/14 people found this helpful)I first read this book when I was 18 and curious about herbal medicine, it was a copy my mother had. believe it or not, most of the herbs and tinctures listed by kloss are readily available today. I would recommend it, if not for the medicinal use then for general information on health and how to take care of your body. totally herbal; utterly inspiring!
