THE BEST GARDENING BOOKS OF THE YEAR - GARDENS ILLUSTRATED 'Informative and enthusiastic' i Paper PLANT-BASED MEDICINE FOR A CALMER, HEALTHIER LIFE It's easy to turn to the pharmacy when we're stressed, sick or feeling under the weather, but what if you turned to your garden instead? In this accessible and easy to use manual, horticultural expert, former Gardener's World presenter and Guardian columnist, Alys Fowler, shows how to take control of your health by adopting a more natural lifestyle. For thousands of years, people who had no access to clinical medicine knew how to boost their well-being by using the ingredients they found in plants. Herbs are the people's medicine; often freely available and abundant, they are ready and waiting to be plucked from around you to soothe and heal your body and mind. With guides for how to use and grow over 100 herbs - for example how to use fennel for indigestion, camomile for anxiety and nettle for hayfever - you'll soon be heading into the garden, rather than opening the medicine cabinet. Offering a fusion of botanical, practical, cultural and historical information, A Modern Herbal reveals how common herbs are the simple, cleansing way to better health and happiness. 'An important and accessible herbal for the 21st century . . . For anyone delving into herbs for the first time or those who want to broaden their herbal repertoire in the garden and home, this book is much needed' Gardens Illustrated AS SEEN IN THE GUARDIAN

In einer Zeitspanne von 15 Jahren hat sich die Spanplattenindustrie zum groessten Zweig der Holzindustrie entwickelt. In allen Erdteilen ent- stehen neue Spanplattenwerke. Die Kurve der Produktion zeigt noch keine Anzeichen fur eine Abflachung. Im Gebiet der Bundesrepublik Deutschland wurde im Jahr 1961 die Grenze von 1 Million Kubikmeter uberschritten, wobei die Tagesproduktion der grossen Werke um oder uber 400 Kubikmeter liegt. Die weitgehend automatisierten Maschinen- anlagen erfordern eine sorgfaltige Betriebsuberwachung, die an das Kontrollpersonal hohe Anspruche stellt. Da die Schwierigkeiten der Spanplattenherstellung haufig unter- schatzt werden, besteht die Gefahr, dass gut kontrollierte Qualitats- erzeugnisse durch minderwertige Platten in Misskredit kommen. Um ihr zu begegnen, wurde schon im Jahr 1956 mit dem Aufbau einer deut- schen Guteschutzorganisation begonnen. Die Grundlagen einer solchen Organisation sind Prufverfahren und Gutebedingungen, die in verhalt- nismassig kurzer Zeit in die Form von DIN-Normen gebracht werden mussten. Diese Vorarbeiten sind im wesentlichen im Forschungsinstitut fur Holzwerkstoffe und Holzleime in Karlsruhe ausgefuhrt worden. Wegen der gebotenen Eile haben die Forschungsergebnisse aber keinen Niederschlag in der Fachliteratur gefunden. Der Kreis der in der deut- schen Gutegemeinschaft Spanplatten zusammengeschlossenen Hersteller- werke nimmt rasch zu, so dass es erforderlich ist, die ganze Industrie mit diesen Arbeiten vertraut zu machen. Der Wunsch, die Vorarbeiten des Karlsruher Instituts mit einer Anleitung zum Aufbau der Betriebsuber- wachung abzuschliessen und diese in Buchform herauszugeben, ging vom Verband der deutschen Sperrholz-und Spanplattenindustrie aus (VDSS).

This classic botanical handbook, originally compiled by the late William S. Justice and C. Ritchie Bell, pairs hundreds of color photographs with descriptions of the wild flowers and flowering trees, shrubs, vines, herbs, and weeds found in North Carolina and many other eastern states, from Delaware to Georgia. Entries include information on habitat, range, size, months of bloom, and features for identification. For this new edition, Bell and Anne H. Lindsey have included too additional species and expanded the information in previous entries to address developments in the field of plant conservation, providing comments on endangered and protected species, medicinal uses, the cultivation of species in a wild garden, and the commercial availability of nursery-grown natives.
