Negative Positive
Title: Unscientific and under-researched
Review: I found this book to be of little to no value.The author neglects to mention uses of several of the plants in her book. For example, the author makes no mention of using burdock or Queen Anne's lace for there roots. The roots of burdock are a delicacy in Japan.Additionally,wood sorrel should come with a warning to avoid consuming large amounts. The oxalic acid in wood sorrel can cause kidney stones in certain people.The author give no tips on identifying the plants referenced. Even more disturbing is the use of plants that have poionous copy cat plants, and the user is not warned individually about these plants. (Water Hemlock and Queen Anne's Lace, balsam and yew).(...). And if you are goingto eat the weeds, there are certainly resources with better content, and safety warnings than this book contains.-Your friendly forager
