Cure Craft

Out of Print...Traditional folk medicine is an accumulate of practices which crosses geographical borders and extends from the early days of history to the present time. It has no central theme, no written canon and no officially recognised practitioners. Nevertheless, throughout the world it is the form of medicine used by more than seventy-five per cent of the population. Cure Craft examines topics such as magico-medicine, medical divination, love potions, natural tonics and herbal cures. There is still much wisdom in the remedies of old. However, this book is not an academic book about the history of folk medicine. It is meant to be a book for people to use. The second section contains an A-Z index of common ailments with their cure using folk medicine.
