Hildegard von Bingen's Physica: The Complete English Translation of Her Classic Work on Health and Healing
"A work filled with astonishments and delights for present-day readers." (Lee Pennock Huntington, Montpelier Times Argus)"Saint, mystic, healer, visionary, fighter, Hildegard von Bingen stands as one of the great figures in the history of women in medicine. She was renowned for her healing work and her original theories of medicine." (Elisbeth Brooke, in Women Healers)"Gives a good sense of 12th century herbalism based on humors, common superstition, and sprinkled with a dose of Bingen's mystical insights." (American Herb Association, Vol 16:2)
