qualified herbalists and students buy this!
This is the book I should have had when I was a student herbalist! The pharmacology and actions of herbs chapters are detailed and I have found these particularly useful.

I would recommend this book as a good basis for a scientific/medical approach that is still holistic. Definitely worth the money.
