Answer: Because I actually have concerns for those on this site and at other related sites.
You guys need to dig this stuff...
These books will help you if you have a physical issue at a minimum.
Psychological and spiritual issues are also addressed.

Great post, Enter. Danksistah already has a couple of these books and they are great sources of vital info. Too many people have compunctions about natural medicine. Society as a whole is blind. Shine on, my good man!!

Out of those four books, which one do you recommend? If you recommend them all, than which one do you consider the best out of the four?

If I had to purchase my books again, the first one I would have purchased is Complete Illustrated Guide to the Holistic Herbal by David Hoffman. Its an updated edition with cool pics of each herb, dosage info, recipes, detailed health info that's too-the-point. An excellent, excellent resource.
If you want it online you can find it at barnes & noble, amazon, walmart, and a whole bunch of other sites. Some even have free shipping on orders of $25 or more.

I have devoted a large part of my life to studying herbal meds and herbal healing and I have used myself as a guinea pig and I do have to say that herbal meds have never let me down.Herbal meds often accomplish the same things as modern meds but with little to no side effects.Often times it works far better than modern meds.
I highly advocate herbal meds and everyone should give it a try.

Very true.
An excellent way to be introduced to herbs and plants is to take a wildcrafting class/course or workshop.Its also plenty of fun.
I go wildcrafting every year.I dont go as much in winter as weather conditions and travel can be difficult and winters can be very harsh.I usually go quite a bit from spring to fall though.Fortunately I have a lot of land available to me for wildcrafting.

I'm interested in knowing about your experiences. If you find time, maybe you could start a brief topic about it, eh?

Anything specific? Or a specific herb or condition?Or rather the general effectiveness and usefulness of herbs?
