| Notes | Herbal Medicine For Everyone - a Guide to the Theory and Practice of Herbal Medicine. After centuries of neglect herbal medicine is undergoing a great revival. With an increasing consciousness of ecology, the medical requirement of the Third World and a movement towards holistic treatment, the value of herbal medicine is now being fully recognised. It is increasingly popular as a viable alternative to orthodox medicine in many aspects of health care and the treatment of both acute and chronic complaints. In this book, McIntyre, a qualified herbalist, discusses the history, principals and application of herbal medicine to a wide range of disease and ailments. |
