"This book
is a real delight both to the
senses and to the intellect. Jo Evans
manages to balance philosophy, art and
science to bring clarity and a deeper
understanding to the sea remedies....
For over two hundred years homeopaths
have used medicines sourced from the sea. Extracts of calcium
carbonate from ground oyster shells; red coral; starfish and
sepia ink are some of the earliest examples. Detailed accounts
of the medicinal and cultural histories of twenty four invertebrate
sea creatures are provided in this sumptuously illustrated book.
