The Herbal Medicine Maker's Handbook: A Home Manual customer reviews: The Herbal Medicine Maker's Handbook: A Home Manual I have lots of great herb books, but this one is the first that gives me detailed and practical information about how to MAKE preparations myself. Green's gentle sense of humor make it approachable, but he also is responsibly thorough. The book is fun to read and I've made my first tincture. I very highly recommend the book to someone who actually wants to USE herbs for healing. Medicine-making made simple........ Have you ever come in from the garden on one of those balmy days when the sun is "just right" neither too hot nor too cold, but warm enough to draw the aroma from your flowers, and thought to yourself, "I would love to preserve that smell for a rainy day." Well, you can by bottling tonics, elixirs, hydrosols, syrups and other concoctions that upon opening in the middle of winter, have the power to transport back to summer days, and perhaps even cure the nasty cold or flu affecting you, or even better, help prevent your becoming sick in the first place. James Green is the most transparent of human beings, an admiral characteristic in someone who is a healer. Green lives what he writes about, and has for a number of years. He is witty, wise, and compassionate. His methods are clearly described and discussed. You too can make many of his products using standard kitchen equipment in your own home.What you make will have your own imprimatur as you will have control over the process and can modify the steps as need be. Green makes medicine. Some herbalists disagree with the idea of focusing on herbal products as part of a medical model, preferring instead to practice only the holistic healing which concentrates on prevention by focusing on the context within which the individual lives. Sometimes, however, no matter what you do, you get sick. Green not only shows you how to create products to deal with these lapses, he suggests ways to address them. Recipes as well as clear instructions for making tinctures, syrups, and other concoctions are included. You will probably get well just because they generally smell so good. Wonderful Find I have collected and given away many medical herb books, mostly because they were inferior to my needs. This Herbal Medicine Maker's Handbook has made it easy to find the herb I need. I am also able to read the ways to use the herb; tinture, lotion, extract, decoction, infussion, tea, salve. I use this book as a refresher and a source of new herbs in treatment. It has become my primary source book for new and innovative ways to help people. The Herbal Medicine Maker's Handbook A lot of great information, tips. and how to do different things. Book arrived in wonderful condition and in a timely manner. An amazing book! This book is not only extremely full of information I've been looking for for years, it's also entertainingly written. It's not only very easy to read, it can even be enthralling, if you're into this type of stuff. It's not only chocked full of info on herbs, it's got info on how to make lotions, medicinal syrups, cough drops, tinctures and stuff, and even Grand Marnier. The only thing I don't like about this book is that it has recipes on making herbal Jell-o, using actual packets of Jell-o--which I consider to be an awful product full of horrible stuff for you. But that's probably my only complaint. The book is amazing and, I find, well worth the money and the time!
