I was really impressed with Herbalism for Beginners. I wasn't expecting such a comprehensive book at such a good price. This book rivals the Herbalism course I took from a well known online school and I won't even mention how much I paid for that course!
The book starts out with the basics and explains in depth all that one would need to know about starting using herbs, what tools are needed, definitions of all the terms one needs to know, information and photos of the herbs themselves, medical interactions, growing, preparing and even dosages! Seeing the dosages really pleased me, as that is something that is not normally found in most herbal books!
There are so many details in Herbalism for Beginners and even after all the courses I've taken and books on herbs and their usages that I've read in the past, I learned a lot from this book. I cannot sing praises for this book enough. It is well thought out, well researched, and truly made for the beginner to sit down and learn using it!
I love that Herbalism for Beginners focuses on herbs that easily obtained. I've taken some past courses where I had to buy all the specialty herb that ended up costing a minute fortune and I still haven't used them all, except for those "special" preparations. This book focuses on things you may have on hand, grew in your garden or can buy at a reasonable price and be able to use them. Finally, someone who cares about the average herbalist!
I will say that one should always cross reference plants and herbs with other books by well-known and trusted herbalists. There is always a chance for an error as well as a possibility of not including everything you might need to know about a specific herb or plant. That's just a safety precaution that should be followed when learning about any new herb. I sit with many books around when studying a new herb that I will be using. There are times when there could be side effects with prescribed medications or medical conditions, so please take the time to know this before using something new.
Herbalism for Beginners comes highly recommended and will definitely be useful to both the beginner as well as the seasoned herbalist. It really is worth its weight in gold!!
I received a copy of this book through BookSirens. I was not required to post a positive review - but one of my honest opinion.

Herbalism for beginners
INDIE LEAF PRESS
This book is a comprehensive, well thought out and thorough guide to use herbs for personal use.
The book gives detailed description of the Herbs uses externally and internally, all the different preparations and contraindications. There is nothing missing from the book. I loved all the wonderful details of the various preparations in the start of the book and the description of what preparations work best for each herb. Over 40 herbs are listed and the great thing about that is that they are all herbs that are commonly found in pretty much every part of the world. This is so important as most books have herbs that are not readily available.
There is also a list of common ailments available for reference.
I will use this book as my bible for herbal remedies, I feel confident being able to make all I need for myself and my family.
Let me know what you think and if I can do more for you as I really appreciate you sharing you wonderful work with me

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. While this is by no means a "course" in herbalism, it is a great resource for reading through to learn about basic herbalism, and how to get started on your own journey in a more natural, functional lifestyle. I not only benefitted from reading through this book as a beginner herbalist myself, but also look forward to keeping it on hand as a quick and practical reference when assessing various herbs, remedies, and so on.

It is a shame osmosis does not work with learning new materials. We read new material, understand it to the best of our ability, and then implement it to the best of our ability. That being said, knowledge is power. (I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.)
