Readers and users of the original Back to Eden (called by some a "classic") know that Jethro Kloss was continually striving to make available a large amount of practical knowledge that would help others to achieve and maintain healthful and productive lives. The completion of this revised edition of Back To Eden, therefore, would surely please Jethro Kloss. A great deal of time and effort have been expended to enhance its content, organization, factual clarity, and readability. Undoubtedly, readers will be pleased to find the new volume more convenient to use than the earlier version. All the essential original material has been retained in this revised edition. Sections and paragraphs on the same or similar topics (scattered in various places throughout the first edition) have now been brought together and arranged in a logical order for ease and speed of reference. Medical terms have slowly but continually changed over the years. For example, few people today know the meaning of such words as "fleet" "teeters" and similar terms used during the 1920's and 1930's when Back To Eden was first written. Therefore, the vocabulary has been brought up to date, even though the old names are also retained from their historical interest. A number of vital topics (such as vitamins, minerals, proteins, etc) which were mentioned only briefly in the early work, have been substantially expanded, and many the timely topics have been incorporated. In addition, this revised text has new illustrations and photographs, new charts, new appendix and glossaries, and a new comprehensive index. To all those seeking improve health through natural means, this new edition of Back to Eden is dedicated. My sincere hope is that this revised and expanded Back to Eden will prove to be of even greater benefit than was the original book written by my father nearly fifty years ago. Read less

Jehtro Kloss was a true healer and crusader for nutrition, personal rights, freedoms, and herbalism. This huge book was his lifes work and deserves to be celebrated for what it is: a lifetimes gathering of intense study and dedication to the good of man. He discusses everything he can think of here. While some of his viewpoints and procedures are now frowned upon - and a few of the herbal remedies taken to the degree he suggests now believed to be dangerous - the large bulk of his remedies and procedures is still regarded as safe and, in some circles, preferable to things available in modern medicine and society. Everything from his personal life and influences, to farming techniques, crops, growing fruits and vegetables, an extensive listing of fruits, veggies, minerals, vitamins, the history of herbal medicine, herbs, their uses, the body system, the health benefits of water, fish, fresh air, exercise, sleep patterns, oatmeal, fiber, breads, salts, milk, etc is included here. He even gives his favorite baking recipes, natural ways to make breads, cakes, soups and more, as well as hints on preserving vitamins, cooking utensils to avoid and use, not to mention desserts and beverages. One really fascinating thing about this book is the large section devoted to water and hydrotherapy. Here we get a rundown of the history of the water cure, various ways to use water to treat - from saunas to foreign bath treatments - temperatures to use when a person is ill to fit their condition, and much much more. Excellent! This massive bible of sorts ends with various enemas and their purposes, charcoal, guides for people wanting to be a nurse, and different massage techniques! Sure, a little of it is outdated but most of it stands true today and shall forever. The man is to respected, and his remedies and treatments are invaluable. Many of his formula is similar or almost identical to the great Dr. John R Christophers, another pioneer of herbal medicine, the modern Dr. Schulz who has a following of his own, and several other herbalists, naturopaths, massage therapists, hydrotherapists, and nutritionists. And, even more incredibly, it's under 10 bucks to own - amazing considering its offering. Buy it? Of course! Why wouldn't you?

Back to Eden is a classic. The author Jethro Kloss was a true master of herbal and natural medicine. Flip the book open to any page and your are sure to find some useful and interesting information. To paraphrase from the book, Jethro says that The Devil can bring about no disease which The Lord does not provide a cure for in nature. I believe this statement to be absolutely true and Jethro claims to have cured people from a variety of diseases, including cancer. Back to Eden is filled with invaluable information. Jethro Kloss has created a masterpiece tomb of cleanses, herbs, and natural remedies. I feel honored to have his words and wisdom available at my disposal with the flip of a few pages.

It has a slew of information on herbs & herbal formulas, diseases and illnesses, cures, health, food & drink, healthful life-choices, your body, all aspects of caring for the sick, and much more! - A goldmine of easy to understand information, much of which is unavailable anywhere else!

I have never come across a better book on natural healing anywhere. This book gives herbal dosages and formulas, nutrition advice, hydrotherapy, massage techniques and a host of healthful recipes. It is a complete book on natural healing. Jethro Kloss shows his sincerity in helping people on every page. The author details his experiences in healing people of severe diseases. These incidents are truly remarkable. But I believe they are true. This book is refreshingly honest. Kloss tells the truth about natural healing and does not cut corners with his advice or experiences. This is in stark contrast to the majority of natural healing books today, which are watered down and the authors are afraid of "offending" the medical community. Truth should be told and this is exactly what this book does. A book that deserves to be a classic.

This book has a wealth of information. I have helped and healed many people with this book. J. Kloss is someone I have looked up to since I discovered his book back in the late 70's when I had a hormonal imbalance and wasn't getting any answers from doctors. I discovered many herbs for women's health. He was a true genius. His approach to illness is confident, filled with wisdom, knowledge and and comfort. Not like some of the doctors of today. ...I depend on his skills, and that is alot to say about this man. My paperback has been used so much it fell apart so I have to buy a hardcover one. There is still so much to learn. Please, don't ever stop printing this book.
