The Encyclopedia of Herbs and Herbalism:

In the Encyclopedia of Herbs and Herbalism an enthusiastic team headed by Dr. Malcom Stuart have produced a practical guide. Ranging from the history of herbalism and the biology and chemistry of plants, to aspect of herb cultivation, collection and preservation, they also provide an alphabetical section listing 420 herbs in detail, their habitats and methods of cultivation, along with their varied and many uses. The 350 superb colour photographs and over 190 drawings and diagrams make this a handsome, as well as comprehensive work of reference on an increasingly popular subject.
