The Medicinal Plants of the Philippines
Trinidad Hermenegildo Pardo de Tavera and Jerome Beers Thomas
From the magnolias to the custard apples, the Philippines grew a pharmacy of its own, and Pardo de Tavera cataloged it family by botanical family. Each plant carries its local names, its reputed powers, and the science of his day. Translated for English readers, it remains a landmark of Philippine medicinal botany. A tropical herbal with the rigor of a trained physician.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
