TAILIEUCHUNG - The Constituents of Medicinal Plants

This is a book about plant chemistry written by a herbalist with no claims of being a chemist. Having a driving ambition to understand the nature of herbal medicines—in particular what makes them work—I delved head first into the previously alien world of atoms, molecules and bonds. Having learned enough to be engaged to teach the topic to budding herbalists and naturopaths, I set about formalising the teaching notes—the result is the original (1996) edition of this text. | 2nd edition The Constituents of Medicinal Plants An introduction to the chemistry and therapeutics of herbal medicine ANDREW PENGELLY The Constituents of Medicinal Plants Andrew Pengelly BA ND DBM DHom trained in horticulture before studying to be a herbalist and naturopath at the renowned Southern Cross Herbal School New South Wales and later studying plant biology at the University of New England.
