## Description

A Complete Guide to 180 Healing Herbs—From America's Favorite Herbalist In this handy companion to his best-selling book, The Green Pharmacy , leading herbal authority James A. Duke, Ph.D., delivers the lowdown on virtually every healing herb available in today's marketplace: its description and history, therapeutic uses, medicinal properties, prescription counterparts, dosage options, safety and effectiveness rating, and precautions. Dr. Duke's inimitable folksy tone and friendly manner shine throughout The Green Pharmacy Herbal Handbook , making it as entertaining to read as it is practical. The most thorough and comprehensive herb reference of its kind, the handbook was culled from the thousands of entries in Dr. Duke's database of the world's medicinal plants. The database, which he began during his career as a top botanist with the USDA, is a lifelong project for Dr. Duke and has become a major reference resource for herbalists worldwide.

Review: ... Book on medicinal herbs and it was just as good as the previous 2 - My 3rd purchase of a James Duke Book on medicinal herbs and it was just as good as the previous 2. A solid 5 star rating for information, scope, and his usual smattering of humor, laced with the random anecdotal comment on his vast range of experiences chasing the medicinal flora of the world . A must for everyone new to herbal medicine and certainly useful and informative to the more experienced, bridging the gap between clinical practitioner and home health practitioner. Would love to talk plants to the Man.
Review: Reliable expertise - James Duke's book "The Green Pharmacy" was one of the first few I read about herbs used for healing. It still has a place in my bookcase. This book has much more complete information about the plants included, and seems more geared for the level at which I practice now. As a nurse and now a trained herbalist, I like the mention of pharmaceuticals used for the same treatment goals. The last 14 years, I have studied both herbs and prescription drugs extensively. Dr. Duke's scientific yet down to earth approach is greatly appreciated. This book will find use as a reference for both the pharmacology lectures I present, as well as those about healing with botanicals. My thanks to Dr. Duke for another winner.

My 3rd purchase of a James Duke Book on medicinal herbs and it was just as good as the previous 2.

A must for everyone new to herbal medicine and certainly useful and informative to the more experienced, bridging the gap between clinical practitioner and home health practitioner.

Just as it was created, you need this book in your home for reference purposes after and or before going to the doctor. Excellent book for everyday good health; a very good herbal guide that is to the point and very easy to understand. I cherish this book and all the other books written by Dr. James Duke.
