I bought it because a friend of mine had it and loved it. I thought it was a long shot to find it on ebay, I was told it was out of print, but there it was at a fraction of the original price. I am very happy with it, there are plenty of new things I have learned by scanning the pertinent pages. It is nice to buy a book and not have it tell you everything that you already know. I am extremely pleased. It has remedies from Aryuveda, Homeopathy, Herbalism and Aromatherapy. It also has a smattering of traditional and folk remedies from various wise cultures like, Chinese herbal remedies and American Indian. It goes into the history of how these movements were started and by whom. It explains the concepts of each method ie. dilution and shaking in Homeopathic medicine. Other sections have the common ailments and these different methods' approach to healing/amelioration of the problem. I would highly recommend it, frankly I find it hard to believe that it is out of print. The glossary is the thing I like the least as it is not as complete as I would have liked. It certainly is not a significant enough reason not to purchase it though.Read full review

I owned this book since it was first printed. It got lost in our last move and I am replacing it with another copy. I've tried other books but none can compare to this one! I should know- I owned a bookstore and ordered several others. THIS one is the best, most comprehensive but easy to use of all the natural remedy books out there. You will not be disappointed!
Remedies, along with medicine and the knowledge of how the human body works and revives itself has been evolving since Cavemen were grilling animals over petroleum bubbles and fire-pits. "Healing Remedies" is a compilation of what plants are proven to work on ailments for millenia. It's wise to try natural first, before spending your nest-egg on hospital doctors and pharmacies.
