Herbs are named and list of properties for good health are included....but how would someone obtain them and where???
Lovely cover and then the inside looks like something printed in someone's basement. There's absolutely no explanation how or where someone could obtain these herbs today. History of course is interesting, but certainly not practical for anyone wanting to try any of them. More information and direction online. Quite a disappointment. If the author wants to truly share his knowledge, he should understand that the average American hasn't a clue or may not live near a health food store where the help knows anything or near a Chinese doctor or herbalist. These herbs may be common to the author, but I'd guess at least half of them most readers have never heard of. Save your dollars and go online or to the library.

Healthful tips and explanations.
Before I read this book I know some Chinese herbs which my grandmother used with some of the food she cooks and even my father is super crazy with Chinese food that is why he love using Chinese herbs on our food also. Now that I have read this book I learned a lot about those Chinese herbs and guided me which one to use and I learned a lot about from this book. I will definitely share it with my friends because most of the herbs here have health benefits and clear explanations that comes with a recipe too. This book is a must read.

The book was a little disappointing. I do not want to bash the author because the effort was there to make this book into a small digestible theme but upon inspection and read, it is still quite disappointing. I was expecting more substance to this pamphlet sized booklet. I wouldn't recommend it as much because it falls short in so many areas. It the same thing I can google and find on the many websites. Its so general and not really a fun read. I just can't believe the author thought this was ok to put onto the market for $8.

Organized and INformative
Very good book on herbs and how to use them for optimal health benefits. I really enjoyed this book on Chinese herbs and found it very informative. The book was very well organized and easy to follow. It was laid out in a way which each herb was listed along with its specific health benefits and how to use them. Great book for someone who is wanted to get started using herbs for health.

Very useful handbook! I had no idea some of these herbs were so beneficial or that they were even used by the Chinese. For example, honeysuckle, which is my favorite flowery scent. It was neat to find out that it has medicinal uses as well! A great reference guide that I will be using often as I start incorporating these herbs into a more healthy lifestyle.

Very interesting!
This book is exactly what i am looking for! it lists all the different types of herbs and give a detailed description on each. The first chapter on the traditional Chinese medicine was one i really loved and plan to use in the future.
