Ancient Herbs, Modern Medicine should be read not only by lay people who are interested in alternative methods of treatment but also by professionals in the field of medicine. It explains very clearly the theories of traditional Chineese medicine and also gives examples of how this ancient system can be succesfully used in combination with alopathic-so called “modern medicine”.
Nancy Deville has a rare quality to explain very clearly even the very difficult questions. Therefore also the non-native English reader will definitely not only understand but also enjoy and profit from the book.

What a fantastic book! Extremely informative, very well written and very comprehensive on the fascinating subject of combining Chinese & Western medicine. This book has revolutionized how I take care of my body, mind and overall health. It is a MUST READ for anyone even remotely interested in health and well-being. Such an easy read that I didn’t realize I was learning along the way. Ten thumbs up.
