I bought this as a replacement for a previously owned copy that got stolen. The edition I had before split the information about the herbs into 2 separate sections, which was fairly awkward to use, but I still found it invaluable. The new layout is easier to use, and confirms this book as by far the most comprehensive reference to herbs I've come across - but what do you expect from the Royal Horticultural Society? Surely no less than that. And it lives up to their reputation well. Beautifully illustrated with lots of full color photographs.

I recently bought a kindle which is very good in so many ways for certain kinds of books...however, it will never replace books like this one. Pure book pleasure for me...informative, beautiful in the way it is presented and laid out and I am very glad that I purchased it.
