Culpeper's Complete Herbal

Beschreibung

Born in 1616, Culpeper's goal was to make medicine available to everyone at a time when only the rich had access to doctor. As a trained physician he wrote a timeless classic "Culpeper's complete herbal" which gives a practical description of herbs and their uses as well as their planetary correspondences. Culpeper's methods were instrumental in the development of modern pharmaceutics.
