 | | In his newest book, The Practice of Traditional Western Herbalism, Matthew Wood describes concepts from herbal medicine, homeopathy, and Native American medicine, making clear how simpling works, how specific med-icines operate, and discussing various laws (the Law of Direction of Cure, the Law of the Healing Crisis), which will be familiar to homeopaths. |
 | | Plants are more than a mere collection of chemicals, Wood reminds us; each species brings together diverse constituents, properties, and virtues to make an ener-getic whole with tremendous healing power. |
 | | With these two books, Matthew Wood has achieved major prominence as scholar, practitioner, and theoretician in the field of contemporary American herbal medicine. |
