Wonderful info & history of herbs
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This book is great. It explains the modern uses of Chinese herbs as well as history & folklore. Wonderful addition to my herbal book collection. I also recommend Herbal Renaissance for western herb history. Both are by Steven Foster.
