The book is a collection of Folk Wisdom and experience, with no claim for scientific basis and the foreword even explains that the author is not to be held responsible for any adverse effects of the preparations of remedies as described in the book. She has collected fold remedies from over 2,000 people of all races in South Africa and has told the scientific name of the plant and how the preparation is made and which ailments it is purported to assuage. Some of these natural plant parts can be stored safely for whenever they are needed; some must be picked fresh.

The book is very interesting, especially since our present generation the world over have become jaded as to chemical formulas which cost a fortune and are turning more and more to the abundant pharmacy in nature.Bonnie Neely, Real Travel Adventures and Amazon Top Reviewer, 2013/08.
