The book gives readers the facts about herbal agents, not exaggerated and unverified claims. Monographs are taken from the results of scientific studies, not anecdotal reports. Each monograph covers the most commonly known generic name, synonyms, common trade names, common forms, source, chemical components, actions, reported uses, dosage, adverse reactions, interactions, contraindications and precautions, special considerations, analysis, and references.
