Understanding Medicinal Plants (eBook, PDF)

Their Chemistry and Therapeutic Action

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Understanding Medicinal Plants is a unique work designed to explain the chemical workings of healing herbs to people who are intimidated by chemistry. This beautifully illustrated, reader-friendly guide explores the molecules of medicinal plants and the pharmacology behind their actions on the human body. Understanding Medicinal Plants aims for the middle ground between a technical manual for highly trained individuals and a book for the general public that oversimplifies the material. It will be valuable to non-science majors, biology majors, interested scientists of different disciplines, and practitioners and students of herbalism and complementary medicine.

Autorenporträt

Bryan Hanson, PhD, is the Julian Professor of Chemistry at DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana, where he has taught for seventeen years. His advanced education includes a bachelor's degree in biochemistry from California State University, Los Angeles, and a PhD in chemistry from UCLA with a focus on the total synthesis of natural products. After two years of postdoctoral work with Jim White at Oregon State University, he began teaching at DePauw in 1986. Professor Hanson's research interests are in the areas of medicinal plants, natural products, and chemical ecology. His primary teaching responsibilities are in organic chemistry, biochemistry, and a course intended for nonscientists called "Medicinal Plants for Poets."
