Description
For the last 350 years, since the reign of Elizabeth I, Nicholas Culpeper's encyclopaedic compendium of the uses and properties of medicinal herbs has been unrivalled in completeness or charm. From Adder's Tongue to Yarrow, each of the 411 herbs is described in detail, along with its 'government and virtues,' remedies and cautions—much of which has held up remarkably well through many advancements in scientific understanding.
This new edition of Culpeper's Complete Herbal has been updated and annotated by Dr. J.J. Pursell, author of The Herbal Apothecary.

About the Author
Nicholas Culpeper (18 October 1616 - 10 January 1654) was an English botanist, herbalist, physician and astrologer. His book, The English Physician (1652, later Complete Herbal, 1653 ff.), is a source of pharmaceutical and herbal lore of the time, and Astrological Judgement of Diseases from the Decumbiture of the Sick (1655) was one of the most detailed works on medical astrology in Early Modern Europe.
