Fairly bite-sized information on a fascinating subject, looking at the connections between plants, folklore, myth and traditional medicine. There are pages on a few specific plants mentioned, with the information split into several chapters. It doesn't give much confirmation either way about most of the beliefs about the plants, whether or not there was any real basis for our ancestors to use particular plants for particular treatments (aside from a few examples), although this may be because there still isn't a lot of scientific proof either way about what medicinal value many plants may have. It's a well-laid out, interesting book, with gorgeous illustrations to enhance the information.
