This title was first published in 2003. In laboratories around the
world the active principles in traditional herbal medicines are
being isolated and characterized. A systematic effort at the
Chinese Academy of Sciences is underway to identify the
structure-activity relationships that result from the link between
chemistry and medicine that is permitted by this data. This book,
which provides the only systematic English-language description of
the chemical structures and pharmacological effects of compounds
active in traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs), is now in its
second edition. The new edition provides English-language
monographs on over 9000 chemicals isolated from nearly 4000 natural
sources used in Chinese medicine and features the addition of
in-depth bioactivity data for many of the compounds. Effects and
indications of the medicines are included. Extensive indexing
permits cross-referencing among English, Chinese and Latin names
for natural medicinal sources, effects and indications, and the
chemical components of the medicines. The second edition of
Traditional Chinese Medicines includes 2300 new compounds, 2400
additional plant sources, more CAS Registry Numbers, and more
pharmacological data. The structure of the book has been
extensively reorganised to make cross referencing the data much
simpler. This new edition is therefore a substantial improvement on
the first edition of this important reference on the structural
chemistry of traditional Chinese medicines.
