Dr. Altschul has compiled field notes of health and medical
interest on over 5,000 species of plants, culled from some
2,500,000 specimens of higher plants collected by field botanists
from all over the world and deposited in the combined collections
of the Arnold Arboretum and Gray Herbarium of Harvard University.
The resulting catalogue represents a unique approach to supplying
new investigational leads to researchers seeking biologically
active plant principles. Dr. Altschul's meticulous sheet-by-sheet
examination of the Harvard collections provides the
pharmacognosist, pharmacologist, and others in the medical and
health sciences with an extensive firsthand survey of the domestic
medicines of many cultures.
