Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Full of healing secrets...
Review: I always new backyard plants could cure common colds, maybe minor skin irritation...But what about cancer? Appendicitus? Or detox the liver, give you all the vitamins and minerals you ever wanted?...Regrow hair, and heal diabetes? Lower cholestrol and blood pressure, and do basically anything modern medicine can! (Without the side effects). But now I know they do, and the medicines taught in here are easy to make. This book is full of information on healing with herbs, and presented with insight and wit. I feel confident any health problem I may come across can be cured. Not with western medicine (which has always made me feel iffy), but simple gifts from Mother Nature we should all get to know better, and shoud've used all along!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Must Have for Herbal Gardeners
Review: I love this book! If you grow and love herbs, then you must get this informative, uplifting, healing book. I feel much more in tune with and respectful of the earth since reading the history and background of the wisewoman tradition. Ms. Weed is a true seeker/teacher and practices what she preaches.

Rating: 4 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a true wise woman
Review: susan's refreshing yet ancient way of interacting with the plant world, and facilitating healing, is a breath of fresh air. it provides plenty of science and facts on individual plants, but the most relevant part of her work is the wisdom of the spiral of life. it is risky, and evokes a core essence of knowing in regards to health and healing. anyone interested in herbs and healing should read this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fantasic!
Review: The writing is fun to read and the content is top notch. I really enjoy the legend and lore as well as the praactical information about how to use the herbs. Its very straightforward in terms of explaining the benefits of the plants and why and doesn't get all complicated with the need to make weird concoctions. Very straightforward and accessible info. I wish this were an encyclopedia in length.

Summary: Full of information and fun. Susan Weed is great!
Review: This creative herbal healing guide will teach herbalists of all levels. Susan Weed gently offers information about three traditional ways of healing along with insightful aspects of each. She goes on to explain that the Wise Woman Traditions are nourishing and simple, easy approach to healing.

Later, in the book, Weed shares her knowledge of alternative healing with seven common, abundant herbs. She teaches in an entertaining way the nutrients contained in each, the effect they have on the body, and a variety of ways to prepare and use them. Weed offers her knowledge in such a fashion that the reader suddenly realizes they are refreshed. It's almost as if they just visited an earthy scented forest or a butterfly filled, grass-waving field.

To add further to the good feelings this guide presents Toni Bernhard sprinkles charming illustrations throughout the book and Alan McKnight a watercolor book-cover along with delightful calligraphic plant names. Susan Weed follows through with her belief that healing comes first by nourishment. She feeds reader's souls with the way she writes. One cannot help but relax and have fun reading and using this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must for anyone seeking herbal information
Review: This wonderful book introduced me to specific plants that up to now I had considered weeds. The way in which the love and respect for these plants is given by Susun Weed makes the reader regard them in a positive light. The comparisons between the different types of healing methods are informative. Also ,as a woman , I found the presentation of the Wise Woman's Way touching a basic belief in myself . I would ,and have , referred other women to this book and it holds a very treasured spot in my personal collection.

Rating: 5 stars
