Summary

Over 100 Herbal Recipes for Health and Healing   Traditional herbalist Marlene Houghton helps readers tackle everyday ailments and takes the guesswork out of using herbs for optimal health. Herbal medicine is useful for a range of common complaints, and gentle and effective herbs can offer benefit where conventional medicine sometimes fails. There have been many books written on herbal medicine.

Among the topics covered are:  A brief history of herbalism  An overview of how herbs heal  A glossary that includes the benefits of each herb and how to use it  A tour of the body’s systems and the herbs that make them work better  An herb dictionary  In a world that's becoming more and more focused on illness and disease, it is clearly important for individuals to learn about natural therapies and take their health into their own hands. By educating yourself in the use of traditional herbalism, you can attain a high level of well-being, and you will only need to consult a conventional doctor when you have a problem that only a medically qualified professional can handle.   This title was previously published as Herbs Plain & Simple.

    In India's tropical paradise, stands a town wrapped around a giant roundabout, where a canny caretaker with a French connection holds sway. Vying for his attention are two competing neighbours. Appu holds lessons for the living but Maya cares only for the dead. And a gastronome dog plays ball girl to tennis-loving nuns.  
At the centre is an imposing temple so ancient that no one knows exactly when it was built. Here, even a tiny railway station has set its own rules for acceptance and belonging. On the other side of the tracks, a baker runs errands for total strangers in the middle of a pandemic.  
Malgudi Days meets reality in the search for joy and belonging in a book that is alternatively heartwarming and hilarious. Anjana Menon takes you to a place that you wish stays that way forever, in these true stories of hope and resilience from a midway Kerala town.

    The Great Emu War, which unfolded in Australia in 1932, stands as one of the most peculiar conflicts in history, pitting humans against a flightless bird. Following World War I, many Australian veterans were given land to farm in Western Australia. However, their efforts were thwarted by an unexpected adversary: the emu population. These large, flightless birds descended upon the newly cultivated fields, wreaking havoc on crops and causing significant economic strain for the farmers. As the situation escalated, the government decided to intervene, leading to a bizarre military operation that would come to be known as the Great Emu War.
