Default Herbal Remedies for Women by Amanda McQuade Crawford

Another good book dealing with women’s health problems such as amenorrhea, infertility, PMS, etc. This book features a more detailed section on infertility than Gladstar's writings do.

However, there are certain problems with this book not present in Herbal Healing for Women. Firstly, the author lists various herbal recipes rather than simply stating what herbs are good for certain conditions. Also, the author is very anti red meat and embraces a high carb lifestyle. Therefore her nutrition suggestions tend to be quite biased.

Overall I find this book less comprehensive than Herbal Healing for Women, but still very good and well worth a read.

Amanda McQuade Crawford is a founding member of the American Herbalists Guild and the National College of Phytotherapy in New Mexico. She has studied and taught herbal therapy worldwide. She currently resides in Ojai, California.
