In recent years many people have become increasingly aware of the medicinal value of plants. However, this is hardly a new area of knowledge. In fact, in the early nineteenth century, an understanding of the medicinal properties of indigenous and tropical plants actually formed the basis of medical treatment. This marvellous volume, originally published in 1834 as 'Hortus Medicus', contains descriptions and illustrations of more than 180 plants. The descriptions of the plants found in this volume are superb in their meticulous attention to detail. The illustrations are vivid and accurate and the accounts of both the medicinal and poisonous properties of a plant are fascinating. Each entry includes its Latin and English name, as well as a picture of the plant. This wonderful directory of medicinal plants will delight and engross the botanist, historian, artist, and anyone interested int he plant world
