Description

This CD set is the January session of William’s last teaching series, organized by Claudia Keel and hosted by Hollis Melton in New York City. See the notes below for topics discussed. The seminar was held in New York in 2002, just a year before William’s death. He’s recorded with a small group of students, the first meeting in a series of six, sharing diagnostic techniques, theory and specific herb use.

Part One and Part Two are CD sets, each in an elegant “bookshelf” case, with the notes for each CD, so material is more easily located.  There are details of William’s manhole cover paintings on the case, and a photo from the year of the seminar. The discs themselves are abstracted versions of the manhole covers, through which to go… deeper…
