In the second edition, worldrenowned ethnobotanist James A. Duke provides uptodate data on over 800 of the worlds most important medicinal plant species. The book contains more species, phytochemicals, proven indications, folk indications, and dosage data than the first edition in a new easier to use format. The indepth content, the addition of color plates and over 200 black and white illustrations makes this book the most comprehensive resource on medicinal herbs available.NEW IN THE SECOND EDITION: Over 100 color plates, 4 color maps Over 200 black and white illustrations Over 800 medicinal plants more than twice as many as the previous edition organized alphabetically by common name More herbs from the African, Ayurvedic, Chinese, and Jamu traditionsEASY ACCESS TO INFORMATION YOU NEEDDesigned to give you fast access to the information you need on a regular basis, this new edition is organized more systematically than any other medicinal herb publication.
