12 Heilpflanzen und ihre Geschichten

Coco Burckhardt embarks on a journey through time back to the oldest form of communicating knowledge - storytelling. Each of the 12 medicinal plant descriptions begins with a fairy-tale that you wont forget easily, following a path of ethnology, doctrine of signatures and botany to a study of active ingredients and medicine. Medicinal formulations for selected plants complement one another to yield a comprehensive home medicine cabinet, while appealing drawings complement the stories - a reader for both enjoyment and learning.
