The book is divided into sections; an The Development of Herbal Medicine which includes how medicinal plants work, a brief categorisation of different active constituents (One of the best I've seen in the books I own but still lacking a lot of information) and then a brief history of Medicinal Plants throughout world history. Reich bebilderte Darstellung von über 550 Pflanzen - Geschichte, wirksame Bestandteile, therapeutischer Nutzen, traditionelle und moderne Verwendung. I especially liked the sections relating to specific areas of the body and specific illnesses and the specific herbs that could help. With 550 key herbs and their uses as natural remedies for nearly 200 common ailments, this is the definitive home reference to healing with the world's oldest form of medicine. Andrew Chevallier is an experienced medical herbalist, healer, and author of books on botanical medicine.

I knew nothing about herbal medicine before I got this book; now I feel that I have a very solid introduction to it.
