Internationally known herbalist Matthew Wood takes the guesswork out of the application of medicinal plants and provides an invaluable cross-reference of constitutional types, energetic categories, and specific symptoms that helps the herbalist narrow down the number of possible remedies for a specific condition. Unlike many reference books in which medicinal plants are defined simply by condition or disease name, this book contains tools to differentiate between remedies and analyze each case in a holistic fashion. While this system of cross-referencing is well known to homeopaths, it is less frequently used by herbalists; The Earthwise Herbal Repertory seeks to bridge the gap between different systems, incorporating knowledge from ancient Greek and traditional Native American medicine, nineteenth-century botanical medicine, homeopathy, and modern biomedical research. This definitive repertory proves useful for homeopaths and herbalists, professionals and home... Views: 410
Vanishing Acts by Ranjit Hoskoté, winner of the Sahitya Akademi Golden Jubilee Award 2004, brings together some of his best poetry, drawn from his three published collections, along with a substantial body of new poems. While continuing to explore the interplay between the epic, devastating sweep of historical events and an intimate, often vulnerable, self, his new poems dwell on emigrants, fugitives, interpreters, double agents—survivors who walk the fragile border between eternity and transience. Experimenting with a variety of forms—ranging from the canticle to the cycle, the adapted sonnet to the passionate apostrophe—Hoskoté expresses the anxieties and delights of a transitive self that constantly shifts location, and evokes strikingly the worlds that can open up at the edges of memory, identity and language.

A SHORT Story
Her middle name should've been MAYHEM.
Trouble follows her wherever she goes.
I just wanted to call her MINE.
And I screwed that up years ago,
But I'm back to make up for lost time,
And missed chances.
I just have to figure out how to make
Maddie Cross want me,
All over again.
We should call ourselves a CLICHÉ.
It was stupid and naive to fall for Luke Gunner.
It was doomed before it even started.
My brother's best friend.
The steely-eyed bad boy.
And I fell. So damn hard.
Because that's what I do.
I find the worst thing to do--and I do it.
And now, he's back.
And damn it, I want him,
All over again. Views: 410
