Review of Herbal Essentials, Stardust to Salves by Rosemary Gladstar

Rosemary Gladstar is the author of  'The Family Herbal', 'Herbal Recipes for Vibrant Health', 'Rosemary Gladstar's Medicinal Herbs', 'Herbal Healing for Women', and many more herbal books!

"Herbal Essentials is not only well written, it also provides a remarkable amount of information about herbs, herbal medicine making, legalities of herbalism, ways to practice, setting up an herbal business, and, of course, information on healing and healing herbs. While the information is remarkably comprehensive and inclusive, it’s the organization and clarity of writing that makes this book stand out. It's easy to use, easy to reference, and goes a step deeper than most herb books in explaining how and why herbs are working the way they do in the body. Mary clearly wants her readers to understand how herbalism has evolved and the concepts behind why things are working as they do. Mary is a pollinator, weaving a green web between the conventional medical world, herbalists and other alternative healing practices in her community, and opening the door for hundreds of students to learn about the healing power of plants."
