Description:
In this volume, globe-trotting medicine hinter Chris Kilham gives an impassioned defense of five plants that have all been maligned to greater or lesser degrees. Weaving his own entertaining and illustrative experiences with facts about the substance's origin and historical uses, he strongly convinces that far from being bad for you, the five plants–coffee, kava, chili peppers, chocolate, and the ever-controversial cannabis–will help prevent and remedy physical health problems, and boost mental and emotional health.
