Opis

An intriguing global odyssey capturing the tales and many uses of Cannabis historically. More Than A Smoke is an academic text written by a medical herbalist for health practitioners, botanists, marijuana lovers and hemp growers alike. The book offers a perspective on the benefits of this plant on the medicinal and commercial scale rather than its illegal association. Countries such as China, South Africa and Greece share in depth views of this plants diversity, a view in which we can learn from today. From paper to medicine and incense in ritual practice to cloth Cannabis certainly is dynamic. Ayurvedic, Yunnani Tibb and Traditional Chinese physicians share their formulas of use, antidotes and cautions of the plant. More Than A Smoke is the first to compile primary resourced information about Cannabis in one book. It is certainly a book ahead of its time and more importantly a summary of a plant that we need to recognize as a participant in sustaining our future.
