Lots of hype but little scientific evidence. Mostly based on opinion and conjecture. Better to look elsewhere……Bratman’s Natural Health Bible is excellent with references. Not worth the paper it’s printed on.
Michel Murray shows a distinct lack of knowledge of pathophysiology (alteration of body function due to disease). He fails to present balanced reviews of the literature on herbal supplementation leaving out well conducted studies which failed to show the benefits promoted in his book. Often his conclusions are based on opinion instead of scientific evidence. Save your money and buy some other work of fiction. – William Joppa R.Ph., B.S.

I got this book as it is part of a course I am taking. Has nothing on medicinal mushrooms which has more nutrients than most herbs or plants. Incomplete would not purchase if not required.
A collection of brief excerpts from autobiographies of literary women around the world spanning then last 50 or so years.
Stunning read as each excerpt offers a unique cultural, historical, political and emotional insight into the ‘ordinary’ lives we lead.
Highly recommended.
This item is so out of date it should not be stocked.
