Format:Hardcover
Hilary Page Self has filled a very important gap in the horse care market. She explains very clearly and without too much pre-amble the different herbs that can help in all sorts of common equine complaints. Each herbal review is divided into convenient sections such as history, useage,dosing etc so that information is easy to find. This is not a canky vague guide to herbs but an essential reference that every horse owner should at least read if not own and it would also be of tremendous interest to vets. Hilary has excelled herself with the writing of this book.

Format:Paperback
A Modern Horse Herbal is the book that I consult most when I have any medical problem with my horses. It is split into two main parts: herbs listed alphabetically detailing when and where to find them and what they can be used for, and which herbs to use for common ailments. Hilary also refers to other alternative therapies such as bach flower remedies, homoeopathy and aromatherapy where appropriate. Very clearly written with interesting case studies, it's the perfect reference book for giving herbs to horses. The book isn't a guide to identifying herbs and other than a few small drawings there are no illustrations.

This is a great little book for understanding how the different herbs work on the body - whilst its specifically aimed at horse owners, it does give you the bigger picture.
