Herbal Healing for Women by Rosemary Gladstar
One of the very first herb books for women and the book that began my interest in herbs. It covers all stages of female-hood with wisdom, understanding and a dose of good humor. There are recipes for teas, tinctures, baths and body products and they are easy to follow and effective.

The Male Herbal by James Green
There are few herbals that specifically address men's health so this book is truly a service. It covers every nuance of men's health and treatments with appropriate herbs with such humor that it is a pleasure to read for women as well.

The Complete Illustrated Guide to Holistic Herbal by David Hoffman
There is a later edition of this book, but the content is nearly the same. The color photos and detailed descriptions of individual herbs and how to use them, plus a discussion on the philosophy of herbal healing makes it a good reference for those beginning their study of herbs.

Anatomica's Body Atlas
While seemingly simplistic next to Grey's Anatomy, the beauty of this atlas is its clear illustrations and concise explanations of physiological functions make it easy to use. It is organized by body-systems, includes descriptions of cell types and tissues and has a 25pg symptoms table along with the index.
