Excellent Homeopathic Remedy Reference

Some of the medical info is dated in this book, as it to be expected as it's 5 years old now, but the reference on the Homeopathic Remedies is just fabulous. I bought it for that alone (that is most of the book anyway), i love how she explains which remedy is for what. Just excellent and i bought it on that merit alone. Great reference, worth the $$

This book is absolutely worth having.

This book is concise, well-written and informative. It gives detailed information about various herbs and homeopathic remedies and specifically cites interactions and effects. The women who wrote the book took great care in not insulting their readers while maintaining a very accesible, easy to read style. I could not recommend this book more!
