From Booklist
The author of the excellent Ginseng Book tells how ginger grows and is classified, how it affects the body, and how to prepare and use it in cooking as well as for promoting good health. (Incidentally, most of the included recipes for main dishes are appetizing, and those for drinks and desserts are almost too tempting.) Ginger tenderizes meat; helps digestion; counteracts motion sickness, nausea, and gas pains; and improves the circulation of the blood. It gives the body an internal sauna, as anyone who has chewed a large piece of it all at once can testify. Fulder describes studies that break ginger down into its various components and show what those can do, and besides the scientific information, provides, in the section on ginger history, growing, and trade, evidence of the major role the plant has played for centuries.
