Duke, James A. The Green Pharmacy: New Discoveries in Herbal Remedies for Common Diseases and Conditions from the World's Foremost Authority on
St. Martin's Press August 1997 0-87596-316-1 / 9780875963167 Hardcover Near Fine
A crisp clean hardcover, no markings throughout. There's still a lot to learn about the healing power of plants, James Duke points out, but what we do know is already prodigious. Much of that knowled ge is gathered in The Green Pharmacy, an A-to-Z guide to that relies on pla nt-based medicines to cure what ails us. Between the listings, Duke crams p ersonal anecdotes from a lifetime of studying herbs, berries, and bark. For example, he relates how he worried about telling a pregnant niece that gin ger could help alleviate her morning sickness because he'd learned from a p harmacologist that ginger could also induce miscarriage. Then he solved the mystery: he'd recommended ginger tea, which contains about 250 milligrams of ginger. The Chinese, he learned, use about 80 times that much to end pre gnancies--another testimony to the amazing versatility of these natural med icines. From Library Journal Very readable and fun, The Green Pharmacy is the culmination of the author' s 30 years of studying and using herbs. In an interesting mix of folklore a nd science, Duke, a botanist and authority on healing herbs, describes trea tment protocols for over 120 health conditions. Although there is frequent reference to experts and studies, including up-to-date findings from the Ge rman Commission E monographs, no accurate references or bibliography are pr ovided. Nonetheless, based on the author's credentials, this is recommended for larger collections. Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc.
