About
Bush Medicine of the Bahamas is a video series based on a four-year research project in the Bahamas. Portions of the video transcripts (as well as audio transcripts) appear in the book, "Bush Medicine of the Bahamas: A Cross-cultural Perspective from San Salvador Island, Including Pharmacology and Oral Histories." The book, a comprehensive treatment of Bahamian bush medicine, is dedicated to the preservation and continued use of this knowledge before it is lost. Chapters explore the cultural roots, principles, and practice of bush medicine. It covers 120 medicinal plants, including details of administration and dosage, pharmacology, and cross-cultural uses; non botanical remedies are covered as well.
