Editorial Review:
The popularity of herbal medicine has exploded during the past decade, with herbal remedies becoming increasingly available in such conventional outlets as drugstores and even supermarkets. Prescription for Herbal Healing brings to herbal medicine the same in-depth, easy-to-understand information and accessible style that Prescription for Nutritional Healing successfully brought to diet and nutritional supplements. This book is divided into three parts for easy reference. Part I discusses the basic principles of herbal medicine and outlines the properties and characteristics of some one hundred sixty single herbs and sixty herbal combination formulas. Part II describes more than one hundred fifty common disorders, conveniently arranged in alphabetical order from acne to yeast infection, and names the herbal therapies that can be used in the treatment of those conditions. Part III is a guide to using various kinds of herbal and other alternative therapies. In addition, it includes self-diagnostic tests and boxed insets throughout, which offer detailed information on a wide variety of topics. Complete coverage of Chinese and Ayurvedic herbs make this volume entirely comprehensive, and thorough scientific references lend it an authority not found in any other herbal book. Prescription for Herbal Healing is the definitive herbal resource and is a necessity for any health-conscious consumer.

Rating:  - Comprehensive and Easy to Use
This has got to be the most comprehensive herbal resource available. Easy to look up by herb and by condition. Fully explanations. Finding the recommended products (in the correct form) is sometime the biggest challenge!
Rating:  - healing book
not what I expected and not as useful as was advertised. Very hard to find the correct information and I believe there is a lot of information that could be in this book that is not. Disappointed if I spent more than a few dollars on the book but for just a few bucks used and shipping I am sure I will get my $7 total out of the book sooner or later.

I bought this for my brother's graduation from Pharmacy college - for reference to the world of herbal medecines sold in most retail drug stores and health food stores. I was disappointed in the book - it did not include some of the remedies I have tried for my IBS and candida. Also, I was hoping for information on how much/how often to use the herbs/oils/powders, etc. I would have exchanged it but needed to give my brother something for graduation party.
Rating: - Excellent source.
This is an exellent source for all things herbal. I highly reccomend it for the apprentice and well versed herbalist alike.

In 2001 i developed some sort of problem,which was stomach or possibly liver related.I used to drink alot,and i got kind of giddy from it during the day.Something internal was telling me to give the drink away.I did but the lightheadedness stayed.I went to the doctor about it,after some blood tests,they couldnt find one thing wrong with me.Now this lasted about a year on and off.Certain things seemed to trigger it,and i couldnt figure out what to do about it.The doctors seemed useless to me,i wondered ...
