Plants, animals and minerals have formed the basis of natural remedies for centuries, and many drugs in orthodox medicine are still derived from them. This book explores the diverse medicinal uses of 230 key ingredients, ranging from garlic to centipedes. A reference guide profiles each ingredient, describing its origins, its therapeutic properties and the disorders it is used to treat.
AS SEEN ON RICHARD AND JUDY. The only thing most people know about Kazakhstan is that homeland to Borat - and he isn't even real. Actually this vast place - the last unknown inhabited country in the world - is far more surprising and entertaining. For one thing, it is as varied as Europe, combining stupendous wealth, grinding poverty, exotic traditions and a mad dash for modernity. Crisscrossing a vanished land, Christopher Robbins finds Eminem by a shrinking Aral Sea, goes eagle-hunting by helicopter, visits the scene of Dostoyevsky's doomed first love, takes up residence beside one-time neighbour Leon Trotsky and visits some of the most beautiful, unspoilt places on earth.
The incredible inside story of the world's most extraordinary covert operation.
