4to. pp. 239, color illustrations, " This is a tastily updated version of the 1969 classic-a concise and well-illustrated historical, biological, pharmacological, nutritional and culinary guide to eating plants. ' New Scientist 'This book not only enables one to distinguish some of the exotica at the ethnic corner-shop, but like its predecessor will surely become an indispensible reference work and teaching aid. May it sell by the thousand! ' Plant Talk 'Hand-painted full-page illustrations are just one of the delights of this comprehensive guide to edible plants....An appealling, indispensible reference book for everyone who loves to eat, cook, and garden. ' Gusto! 'This book is a new, updated, rewritten, enhanced version of a 1969 original. The illustrations are both handsome and helpful. The text, in its terse way, is a knockout....It should be everyone's cup of tea (not to mention cocoa, and of course, coffee)."[less]
