Tyler's Herbs of Choice: The Therapeutic Use of Phytomedicinals Book

This book was recommended to me as a great women's herbal, and for the most part, it is. As with many herbals, the language and ideas are colorful and left-of-center, but that's part of it's charm. If you are looking for a strictly rational, medical approach to herbalism, you certainly won't find it here! Rather, this book is very human, mixing artwork, dreams, emotions, societal influences and of course, herbs and their uses and contraindications.

I admit that I would have rated this higher, but I took issue with one of the ideas she introduced at the end, which kind-of ruined the rest of the book for me.
