Thyme oil is among the world's top ten essential oils, displaying antibacterial, antimycotic, antioxidative, food preservative, and mammalian age-delaying properties. Recently an increased demand has lead to new winter-hardy, high yield cultivars being developed for commercial cultivation in Canada and North America. This comprehensive volume covers all aspects of the biology, cultivation, pharmacology, chemistry, and industrial processing of the genus Thymus.
