NATURAL REMEDIES OF ARABIA By Robert Lebling and Donna Pepperdine published by Stacey International ISBN 1 905299 02 8 price 27.50 [pounds sterling] hardback
This timely volume comes just as the age-old regional knowledge of remedies naturally available--encapsulated in an oral tradition that carries hundreds of years of empirical knowledge--is being allowed to drift from contemporary consciousness, to be replaced by a new blind faith in remedies widely promoted by the major pharmaceutical companies. Robert Lebling and Donna Pepperdine have completed a rigorous study of the health remedies traditionally recognised across Arabia--an ambitious project executed with conscientious attention to detail.
The result is an impressive body of research, combining a thorough text with good pictorial coverage, a description and photograph of each herb or spice, including a description of its medical properties and its uses in the kitchen and home, with a major section on recipes and health-giving Arabian dishes and beverages.
These centuries' old alternatives to modern medicine highlight the benefits of effective natural ingredients being used as preventative and curable remedies.
