Our everyday vegetables are far more than just sources of vitamins: they harbour secrets, colourful stories, and magic, while some of them even qualify as powerful healing plants with clinically proven medical effects. In this thrilling and easy to read book, Wolf-Dieter Storl, the great connoisseur and explorer of healing plants and crops, presents 50 garden vegetables, including some rare and forgotten vegetable and salad plants. A unique combination of gardening, ethno-botany, cultural history, and ancient as well as recent medical findings.
Wolf-Dieter Storl: Cultural anthropologist and ethno-botanist. He has lectured at various universities and is the author of several long-selling books. He lives on an isolated farm in the Allgäu.
