Synopsis

This third entry in the successful Essential Handbook series squeezes a wealth of fascinating information about herbs into a pocket-sized package. Over 100 life-enriching herbs are catalogued, with comprehensive reference information for each, including its Latin name, traditional uses, optimal growing conditions, and benefits to the body and mind. More than just a practical manual, it also describes key ways to incorporate any herb into daily life, whether dried in a therapeutic sachet, soaked to form a skin-soothing compress, or infused to make an uplifting tisane.
