Description

For millennia, man has been using herbs; in food, for healing, and for magical purposes. Only in the last hundred years have the magical and medicinal properties of herbs been separated by scientists and the magical community. This book reunites the two into a comprehensive reference. Drawing on her years of practice and research, Deborah Martin has compiled information on over three hundred herbs. Avoiding the confusion of common names which can vary by region, she uses the Latin binomial or scientific names for all the plants but gives the reader a cheat sheet for easy reference. Written with a touch of humor, she details the difference between synthetic drugs and herbal alternatives. Lists make looking up an herb for a simple ailment or magical spell effortless. Also given are instructions for different types of herbal preparations and their medicinal and magical uses.

Media Reviews

Many books on herbs will tell you what to do, but not how to do it; this book explains in simple terms how to use herbal preparations, and the cheat sheets make for simple referencing, giving the reader a concise overview of each herbs' use and the safety precautions. (Vikki Bramshaw, Author, Craft of the Wise) Herbs: Medicinal, Magical, Marvelous! is that rare book that focuses simultaneously on different aspects of plant powers, not just one. Herbs is well organized, detailed, fun, and highly recommended. Keep a copy beside the herbal medicine chest and your Book of Shadows. (Judika Illes, Author, The Encyclopedia of 5000 Spells, Pure Magic, and other books)
