 Note: There will be references to other books, journals, on-line and other resources in every Unit of the course.  The following books are not ‘essential’, but it is a good idea to look at a few and choose **two or three** that catch your eye and suit your personal learning style.  They are divided into categories, but there is considerable crossover – some books cover a bit of history, medicinal use and home remedies, for example.  Reading online reviews may help you get a feel for the books contents and approach to the subject. The **bold** title may be of particular interest.\\ Note: There will be references to other books, journals, on-line and other resources in every Unit of the course.  The following books are not ‘essential’, but it is a good idea to look at a few and choose **two or three** that catch your eye and suit your personal learning style.  They are divided into categories, but there is considerable crossover – some books cover a bit of history, medicinal use and home remedies, for example.  Reading online reviews may help you get a feel for the books contents and approach to the subject.
