About the author

Andrew Stableford trained in herbal medicine with the School of Phytotherapy, qualifying in 1983, following a first degree in psychology. He initiated, developed and continues to run a successful herbal medicine practice in Lincoln. He joined the University of Lincoln in 2002, initially on a half time basis and full time from 2006. He was the programme leader for the BSc (Hons) Herbal Medicine and led the development of the course over the next 16 years, in particular for the third and final year. This was a unique opportunity to develop an academically rigorous professional programme which relates both to the way in which herbal medicine is practiced holistically and to scientific principles.
