Same book as Rosemary Gladstar's Family Herbal (Hardcover),
By V. H. Wilson "V. H. Wilson" (NS,Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rosemary Gladstar's Herbal Recipes for Vibrant Health (Paperback)
I bought this book sight-unseen as I knew that I would love anything written by Rosemary Gladstar. Not until I received this book did I realize that I already have a hardcopy version of it with a different title!
The title page indicates, "A hardcover edition of this book was previously published under the title ROSEMARY GLADSTAR'S FAMILY HERBAL. Sections of this book previously appeared in the author's self-published works THE SCIENCE AND ART OF HERBOLOGY (1985), HERBAL MEDICINAL PREPARATIONS (1989), HERBS FOR CHILDREN (1989), HERBS FOR THE NERVOUS SYSTEM (1989), and NATURAL COSMETICS AND SKIN CARE (1989)." See ISBN: 1580174256 for more details and reviews of the FAMILY HERBAL. At the time of this writing, it currently has 5 stars. I'd give it 6 stars if that was an option! It has a beautiful layout, clear instructions, easy recipes and a bountiful index. For everything I have tried so far, I have found all of the ingredients either in my garden or at the local healthy living store. The table of contents merely hints at the wealth of knowledge contained within: Eco-Logical Herbalism A Prescription for Life Taming Stress and Anxiety Home Remedies for Everyday Ailments Recipes for Radiant Beauty For Children For Women For Men For Elders Appendix I: The Herbal Apothecary: An A-Z Guide Appendix II: The Art of Making Herbal Remedies Resources

Worth every penny and then some,
By Leslie (Calgary, AB) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rosemary Gladstar's Herbal Recipes for Vibrant Health (Paperback)
It was because of the other positive reviews on this book that I decided to purchase it. I'm so happy I did and I unhesitatingly add my own positive review as a new fan of Rosemary Gladstar's. I'm well on my way to understanding, utilizing, and benefiting from my newfound knowledge about herbs because of her wealth of knowledge. It seemed overwhelming at first with talk of so many things I'd never heard of but such is the way with a new topic. Now that my own herb pantry is slowly and steadily growing, I continue to refer back to her book constantly to keep learning. I've made several of her recipes for beauty products, teas, and tinctures. I'm anxiously awaiting the final results of these wondrous concoctions (the tinctures) as they take a few weeks to complete. If you're serious about wanting to learn about herbs, this is the book for you.

Interesting But Not What I Was Looking For,
By
This review is from: Rosemary Gladstar's Herbal Recipes for Vibrant Health (Paperback)
When I first read the reviews and information on Rosemary Gladstar's Herbal Recipes for Vibrant Health I was given the impression that the book would literally just be a recipe book for lotions, shampoos and soaps. And while, yes, it does contain a few of those things, I don't feel like this is what the book focuses on. It also contains suggestions for healthy eating as well as herbal remedies for things like arthritus and indigestion. There are actually few recipes inside of this book - moreso just recommendations. Still, she has an interesting and warming approach to life and this makes the book still capable of turning pages.
