Author Information

Rachel Lord, Registered Nurse and Master Clinical Herbalist, has been practicing and teaching basic and advanced herbalism for thirty-five years. She created and ran a Colorado state approved herbal program. Her experience developing curriculum for her school prompted her to write this text - the one she wished she had had all along. The book covers everything an herbalist needs to know and fills in the gaps and holes for beginners, self-taught herbalists, and experienced clinicians alike. It is the perfect textbook for any herb program, complete with an online manual for educators. Rachel loves to gather, check out and commune with the wild medicine growing in her local Colorado Rocky Mountains and believes we have been gifted with an important bounty of plant medicine that we must nurture and protect.
