Herbal Remedies A-Z gives a wide variety of herbs, listed alphabetical order for easy reference. It tells of the uses for each herb, gives directions how to use such as a tea or to rub it on. A brief history is given with the country where it was originally used, which I found most interesting. As a retired woman over the new age of retirement in the US of 66, I take only two pills from a medical doctor, as I have no other problems requiring drugs. For all of my adult life I have taken herbs or used them to treat minor problems, so this book was a great find for me to add to my collection of herb books. I also know a great herbalist to go to for advise and I liked that in the introduction of Herbal Remedies A-Z, the book recommended that a good herbalist for expert advice was a wise person to know if you choose to use herbs. I have always thought of herbs as preventative measures but I still have regular check-ups and follow my doctor's advice when a health problem needs attention. This book is not a replacement for seeking medical advice when it is needed.
