Heinerman's Folk Remedies from Around the World

This is an excellent resource and interesting read. I have several books by this author and they are all in good condition and excellent resource material.

Specific, useful remedies and treatments.

Folk Remedies From Around the World provides folk remedies not from solely American sources, but from folk cultures around the world, offering something different to those interested in more than Western medicine alone. Some of the comments and information may prove controversial to many - such as the comments against chemotherapy for treating cancer - but the remedies are specific and useful.
