Review:

“A fine pick for any health collection, especially those adding to their natural remedies sections who want a broader viewpoint than many titles offer.”

Desert Independent, 10/12/12“During these difficult economic times, it is a good idea to do as much as we possibly can without incurring expense for some injuries, which we can treat ourselves. This book is excellent and provides many remedies under various theories of treatment.”

VegNews, November/December 2012“An amazingly thorough compilation of therapies, remedies and common treatments for just about anything that could ail you, all in a beautifully designed, easily referenced package...If you have an aversion to your physician’s Rx pad, Remedies is the prescription you are looking for.”

Metapsychology Online Reviews, 1/8/13“This book would prove vital compendium of alternative approaches for medical professionals, as well as for parents and teachers. It would also be of great benefit to people who travel beyond the reach of medical professionals, a handy resource to keep alongside their copy of Werner, Maxwell and Thuman’s Where There Is No Doctor...In short, it is an invaluable resource for those who reside—both geographically and philosophically—far from the modern medical paradigm.”
