Back To Eden Mass Market Revised Ed 
asked by bigwinner on November 25, 2006 3:28 AM
Now in its expanded, updated revised edition with a new index to make the book easier to use, this is the original classic text (with more than 4 million copies sold) that helped create the natural foods industry. It remains today one of the major texts on herbs, natural diet and lifestyle and wholistic health. This is the authorized Kloss family edition with the family archival photographs and reminiscences included.

In the book, Mr. Kloss said of all diseases, "God has invented the cure and is waiting for man to discover it." The longer I practice as a pharmacist, the more I realize he was right.
Some of his ideas - especially about cancer, diabetes, and infectious disease - are now known to be erroneous (herbal tea enemas ARE NOT cure-alls!) but it's an excellent guide to herbal medicine, and does mention herbs which should not be used by certain people. It also gives details about things like salt glows and hot fomentations, which probably won't cure anything but may at least make the person feel better.
Promise Kloss Moffett died in 2003, five days before her 100th birthday.

Good information but I find many of the treatments brief or outdated, I prefer The Little Herb Encyclopedia by Jack Ritchason. Together they make the perfect herbal library.
