A fully-illustrated herb directory describes over 50 herbs in detail, both Chinese and Western, with a description of the herb, the part used and its properties and actions, how it works in the body, and how it is used to treat common ailments. Recipes for over 100 remedies are included in the form of tinctures, decoctions, infused oils, ointments and creams, syrups, vinegars and powders.
