As the medicinal plant industry blooms into a billion dollar
business, it reaches beyond collection, propagation, harvesting and
sale of crude vegetal drugs into product formulation, packaging and
dispensing of sophisticated phyto-pharmaceuticals and herbal
preparations. The scientific study of these medicines and the
systematic uplifting of the industry to preserve the ancient and
serve the modern, is now a global challenge. The Medicinal Plant
Industry puts together the various facets of this
multi-disciplinary industry and its global interest. It discusses
the dire need for developing countries to acquire technologies and
techniques for programmed cultivation of medicinal plants. It
addresses a wide variety of topics including the old philosophies,
modern impact of traditional medicines, and methods of assessing
the spontaneous flora for industrial utilization. It covers aspects
of cultivation and climatic variations, biological assessment and
formulation, process technologies, phytochemical research and
information sources. The book reviews highly developed traditional
medicine in China and India, and covers experiences in Africa and
other continents.
