David Hoffman is great and I will buy The Complete Illustrated Holistic Herbal: Safe and Practical Guide to Making and Using Herbal Remedies. That being said, this series of books didn't really pan out for me.
This book gives a good deal more information about bone/tendon issues than your average herbal.
However, for my particular conditions (tendinitis) the additional information was not worth purchasing this book.
