In this day and time when we have so many changes culturally I have come to think many times about this book that I read and back when it came out in 2014. About how important are ecology is to both the Earth and to us humans. I have great respect for all of the people that did the hard work of finding all the original plants that would become our medicines. That we are now going back to and realizing that they can cure us. This time when we are going back to food to the land unto the plants that we have around us. This book helped me understand that there was a lot of work done for us to have this knowledge. This young woman sacrificed her social and love life to make that happen. Such an enriching educational and inspiring novel.
