Hey Ananda, I've never seen this one before, and you're right-- hard to find a review on it. A quick search revealed 1 small review: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1418912.HERBAL_HEALING_Secrets_FOR_WOMEN and I did notice it's for sale on ebay for $1.99.
I've not heard of her. I did a google and found she's written 15 books and is a senior writer and editor for Natural Health magazine. Amazon describe her as a social worker and health researcher. The titles of her books tend to suggest she has written to meet the demands of a consumer market. I would be surprised if her experience comes from growing and using her own herbs.(but I may be wrong!) I have a strong cynicism surrounding people who are journalists first and herbalists second having been burned by someone else of that ilk who was publishing the most appalling rubbish in a magazine over here.
Haven't read the book but this link: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1058464.Herbal_Healing_for_Women may give you enough answers about the content.
From my understanding is Laurel Vucovic a herbalist for decades. There are some books translated into German and I read only good reviews and "must have" comments about it.
