Summary: A Must Have in Herbal Medicine
Review: I first came across this book in the pharmacy where I work. The collection of sheer data in it is tremendous; there is information in this book that is almost impossible to find in any other herbal (including information on clinical trials and interactions). Most of the medical reference books that we use cost well over a hundred dollars and are not user friendly. Not so with this book. The only reasons that I didn't give it 5 stars are 1) this book is not illustrated, and 2)the book assumes you have access to a high quality herbal product, which is not always the case with herbal medicine.Any serious herbalist should include this book in a reference library.

Summary: Compresive Database for Natural Medicines
Review: Wonderful and comprehensive database for anyone interested in natural/herbal medicines - includes dosage, allopathic drug interactions, side effects, food interactions etc. More complete than the "PDR for herbal medicines". Pro for PDR is that it has colored pictures of the herbs in the natural state. PDR, however, does not have homeopathic dosing and the "Database" does (but it is not a repetory). A good adjunct to Textbook of Natural Medicine. Also important for healthcare providers who have clients that use natural medicines and need to know interactions between what is being prescribed and what is already being used.
