Summary: Herbal Prescriptions by Brown
Comment: This book provides many natural remedies for classic bodily
problems. For instance, dandelion bark may be useful to manage
bile flows in the body. Hawthorne is useful for angina.
Garlic is employed for artheriosclerosis and formations
that clog the arteries. This work identifies many classic
herbs which are useful for a plethora of problems.

Summary: Great book, especially if you don't grow your own herbs!
Comment: I am not into gardening of any kind (I've killed catuses, for pete's sake) and was having a heck of a time finding a book about herbal remedies that didn't spend most of its pages telling me how to pick, grow and pickle (so to speak) my own herbs. This is a marvelous book for someone who wants sound (not faddish) advice on herbal remedies. It has one section where each herb/plant is listed, with recommended use, side effects, safety issues, etc. The next section lists ailments, recommended "herbal prescriptions" (treatments that have been studied "scientifically"), "other herbal considerations" (treatments that haven't had a lot of scientific study, but have demonstrated traditional or anecdotal efficacy), nutritial supplement considerations, and lifestyle considerations. Where it makes a difference, Dr. Brown tells you what form of the herb is best. And great tidbits like how chamomile may be difficult (not dangerous) for someone allergic to ragweed (daisy family), because chamomile is in the same family. This is a very well written, well thought-out book. The only reason someone might not give it five stars is that it doesn't cover as many herbs as in other books. But then, many herbs have little if ANY scientific data, and that was one of the author's considerations for inclusion in this book. Highly recommended.
