1: Excellent....However....
This is an excellent resource book. Rosemary gives you natural remedies to common ailments that we all suffer from. Her books are easy to read and comprehend and a valuable addition to any herbal library. I can't say enough good things about her books: she gives you recipies to follow, ways to prepare herbal concoctions in various forms using a variety of bases and her writing is very down to earth.
Here is the however: This book and a few of her others are completely included in her book "Rosemary Gladstar's Family Herbal". The "Family Herbal" includes: Taming Stress & Anxiety, Home Remedies for Everyday Ailments, Recipes for Radiant Beauty, For Children, For Women, For Men and also For Elders and even more information then that - including information on how to prepare herbs, An A - Z Herbal Apothecary, etc...
The only book, where the topic is also touched on in "The Family Herbal", I would purchase aside from "The Family Herbal" is "Herbal Healing For Women" and any of her other books whose titles aren't included in "The Family Herbal"

2: Excellent skincare recipes
I use her recipe for cleansing grains every day. It's the only thing I've found that cleans my super dry skin without leaving it drier. Also used her directions to henna my hair for the first time. I order her products as well and they are all wonderful.

3: Good information
I appreciate books like this that are relatively inexpensive and good to have on hand to give the best of the best and the most useful of the useful. Gladstars book explains those basic herbs that we should have around the house all of the time... Buy this book to see what you need to keep stocked in your medicine closet.

4: Herbs to always have on hand.
Rosemary Gladstar truly knows her subject matter. She has perfected the way to individualize health concerns and write detailing the herbal treatments for that area. In this book, however she has given us the most important and the most "universal" (in terms of their diverse uses) herbs that we should always have on hand. I don't think it was an accident that her name is Rosemary. Good work Ms. Gladstar.
