In The Book of Herbal Wisdom Matthew Wood creates a vast and
sweeping history of herbalism, drawing on Western botanical
knowledge, homeopathy, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Native
American shamanic botony. Detailing the history and use of more
than forty plants, he shows how each tradition views a plant, as
well as its use in cases drawn from his own herbal and homeopathic
practice. An initial section describes signatures, similars, and
patterns in these traditions, and elements, temperaments, and
constitutions. Wood has two objectives: to demonstrate how herbal
medicines are agents of healing and wisdom, and to give the reader
a useful catalogue of plants for medicinal uses. His clinical
observations of his patients bear the wry wisdom of the country
doctor; his love of plants is evident in lush botanical
descriptions, which show the connection between remedies - whether
homeopathic, Chinese, or Native American - and the plants from
which they are derived. The Book of Herbal Wisdom brings to readers
centuries of lore about healing from indigenous traditions, at a
time when people are exploring empirical enthosciences with a
seriousness unparalleled in history. In no other contemporary
botanical compendium have North American Indian medicine,
homeopathy, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Western herbalism
been so thoroughly integrated, and so engagingly described.
Modern medicine has separated man from nature. The author, a
homoeopathic practitioner, contends that it is this inability to
recognize wholeness that has caused medicine to reach a dead end.
Parallel to the development of consciousness to its modern
scientific objectivity Twentyman discovers a changing pattern of
health and disease in society. The prevalence of diseases like
cancer and Parkinson's and new diseases like AIDS appears as part
of this history. He regards the understanding of wholeness leads to
the rediscovery of healing in its deeper sense to be a true art.
At last we have a serious and enchanting book which approaches the
story of these extraordinary people in a historical and critical
light. The clarity of Rima Handley's careful and fascinating
research allows us to see homeopathy as its founders saw it, from
within their own time and without the dogma or interpretations of
the gurus which have colored it since. This book is a must for any
lover of biography as well as anyone interested in the history of
medicine or homeopathy.
