Illustrated Chinese Materia Medica (An)

"Jing-Nuan Wu's An Illustrated Chinese Materia Medica provides an accessible and useful definitive reference on Chinese herbal medicine. It gives an understanding of the theories and history of the subject along with superb illustrations accompanied by thorough write-ups on plants. I rate this as the best book on the subject and have long recognized the inspired work of Jing-Nuan Wu."
