AN HERBAL JOURNEY
In National Geographic Herbal, readers journey from the micro to the macro. We begin with the bodily sensations of how one experiences herbs. Then we step into the kitchen and apothecary for nourishing inspiration and do-it-yourself tips and tricks.
THE HERBAL PATH
Travel down the garden path to cultivate allies and explore weeds along the way. From there, take the forest path and pan out to examine community uses of herbs. Ultimately, explore a global perspective, examining some of the world’s most traveled herbs in commerce.
HONORED TRADITIONS
Find cherished traditions and critical topics relevant to herbal medicine featured throughout, including current ethical and ecological issues in the field. The epilogue presents an in-depth consideration of these concerns.
