Written by an authority on alternative health care and a trained medical herbalist, this book attempts to provide a complete guide to herbs and their uses. With the modern preference for drugs, chemicals and additives, it is sometimes easy to forget that herbs have played an important part in our health for centuries. In the past, women have been the skilled and trusted dispensers of this herbal lore, and Kitty Campion's book is designed to bring this tradition up to date and into the home. The book includes advice on body maintenance, preventative herbal medicine, how to grow herbs, stress and how to cope, head-to-toe beauty, sexual difficulties, menstruation, menopause and contraception, pregnancy and childbirth and ageing gracefully.
