The book further speaks about several prominent personalities of each medicinal system who helped in shaping the system. Each civilization recorded their medicinal knowledge in some or the other form that are called the ‘Herbals’. This work gives a compilation of herbals from the Mesopotamians until Renaissance period. Thus provides an insight into medicinal practices of each period. These herbals were the source of medicinal knowledge and were relied upon by medicinal practitioners until the nineteenth century. Nineteenth century led to the discovery of substances such as alkaloids, glycosides, resins, volatile oils, gums, tannins, etc collectively called secondary metabolites. A small fraction of these constituents have been isolated and explored for their medicinal properties. Secondary metabolites is very vast topic hence, selected categories of secondary metabolites have been discussed. This book also discusses in brief, their biosynthesis along with their role as pharmaceuticals. Though Allopathy remains as the mainstream in health care, herbal medicines have been main source of primary healthcare in many nations. These herbal medicines are the synthesis of therapeutic experiences of generations of practicing physicians of indigenous systems of medicine for over hundreds of years. Each country, each region, each tribe has their own traditional health care system. The practice, the belief and the basis of a few traditional systems, prevalent in each continent are discussed providing a brief insight into these traditional systems of medicine. This book also includes monograph of 120 plants. Scientific data along with traditional uses are included in these monographs to highlight their usage as mainstream pharmaceuticals. *Chapter-1 :* Herbal Medicine : Evolution of Medicine and Human Society *Chapter-2 :* History of Medicinal Systems: Development Down the Ages *Chapter-3 :* Herbals: The Sources of Herbal Knowledge *Chapter-4 :* Phytochemicals: Source of Novel Therapeutic Compounds *Chapter-5 :* Traditional Medicine: Medicinal Systems Prevalent Today *Chapter-6 :* Monographs of Selected Plants Glossary of Action Terminologies Colour Plates Bibliography Book can be obtained from the following publisher: SUMIT PAL JAIN NEW INDIA PUBLISHING AGENCY 101, Vikas Surya Plaza, CU Block LSC market, Pitam Pura, New Delhi-88 (India) Tel:+91-011-27341616begin_of_the_skype_highlighting+91-011-27341616 end_of_the_skype_highlighting, 1717 web:www.nipabooks.com

Re: [efloraofindia:57548] 201210-PR -For ID-Chennai.
People give very peculiar names to the plants based on their perception and sometimes these names continue their use in local language. Some times they even relate it to religion by attaching some god's name to it. Thats a way of local nomenclature. It does help a lot at time whereas creates confusion too. One such example is HABE AMRI, which is a broken, molested, marathi word for HABENARIA and nothign else according to me. The plant growing in Howrah Botanic Garden which is called Mad Tree is Chrysophyllum cainito. Bengalis also call it rasogulla tree, I imagine why dont they call it Gulab Jamun tree as the fruits are dark bluish brinjal or brown like a Gulab Jamun. Pterygota alata diversifolia is called Mad Tree or Buddha's coconut!!
