Pharmacognosy" is a Greek word, derived from pharmakon means drug, and gnosis means knowledge. It is the study of the crude drugs produced from natural sources such as plants, animals and minerals including their morphological, chemical, and biological properties as well as history, cultivation, collection, extraction, isolation, bioassay, and their standardization for biological, chemical, biochemical, and physical properties. The objective of the study of “pharmacognosy” is for safe use of herbal drugs including their side effects, toxicity, drug interaction, etc thereby increasing effectiveness in modern medicine. Like any other scientific area, since the introduction of Pharmacognosy some 200 years ago, it has evolved over the years, and now Pharmacognosy can be defined as the science of biogenic or naturally derived drugs, pharmaceuticals and poisons. Various modern analytical techniques are used to authenticate and standardization of the crude drugs. De materia medica is a pharmacopoeia of medicinal plants written by Dioscorides between 50 and 70 CE in which about 600 plants are placed. Keeping the requirements of the curriculum for the students of Bachelor of Pharmacy and Diploma in Pharmacy under Pharmacy Council of India in view, the authors of Concise Encyclopedia of Herbal Drugs have put a small effort to bring 134 herbal drugs with their synonym, biological name, family, source, uses, chemical constituents, chemical identification tests, adulterant, picture of the drug and the chemical structure of one of the major constituents with this book. Pictures are collected from search engine google. The chemical structures of the phyto constituents are drawn using software Chemdraw version 12.0. As the monograph of the herbal drugs too difficult to memorize so the authors concise the monograph and along with provided a large coloured picture of the drug to make it attractive for the students to read and memorize. It would be grateful to the readers if they draw the attention to the deficiencies and errors that might have remained. We express our sincere gratitude to all who have extended their cooperation and help in completion of this book. Hope, this book would be well accepted by the students and teacher community.

A vast majority of the world’s population lacks access to essential medicines and the provision of safe healthcare services. Medicinal plants and herbal medicines can be applied for pharmacognosy, or the discovery of new drugs, or as an aid for plant physiology studies. In recent years, there has been increased interest in the search for new chemical entities and the expression of resistance of many drugs available in the market has led to a shift in paradigm towards medicinal research. Herbal treatments, the most popular form of folk medicine, may become an important way of increasing access to healthcare services. Advanced Pharmacological Uses of Medicinal Plants and Natural Products provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of drug discovery from natural sources that allow for the effective treatment of human health problems without any side effects, toxicity, or drug resistance. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as ethnobotany, therapeutic applications, and bioactive compounds, this book is ideally designed for pharmacologists, scientists, ethnobotanists, botanists, health researchers, professors, industry professionals, and health students in fields that include pharmaceutical drug development and discovery.

An overview sums up the research findings on all species within each genus. Clinical observations are discussed whenever available, and possible therapeutic applications are highlighted. The book closes with chapters on the conservation of medicinal orchids and on the role of randomized clinical trials.

Plants personify the divine— The Rig Veda (X.97) Trees and plants have long been held sacred to communities the world over. In India, we have a whole variety of flora that feature in our myths, our epics, our rituals, our worship and our daily life. There is the pipal, under which the Buddha meditated on the path to enlightenment; the banyan, in whose branches hide spirits; the ashoka, in a grove of which Sita sheltered when she was Ravana’s prisoner; the tulsi, without which no Hindu house is considered complete; the bilva, with whose leaves it is possible to inadvertently worship Shiva. Before temples were constructed, trees were open-air shrines sheltering the deity, and many were symbolic of the Buddha himself. Sacred Plants of India systematically lays out the sociocultural roots of the various plants found in the Indian subcontinent, while also asserting their ecological importance to our survival. Informative, thought-provoking and meticulously researched, this book draws on mythology and botany and the ancient religious traditions of India to assemble a detailed and fascinating account of India’s flora.

In this second edition of Natural Food Colorants two new chapters have been added and we have taken the opportunity to revise all the other chapters. Each of the original authors have brought up to date their individual contributions, involving in several cases an expansion to the text by the addition of new material. The new chapters are on the role of biotechnology in food colorant production and on safety in natural colorants, two areas which have undergone considerable change and development in the past five years. We have also persuaded the publishers to indulge in a display of colours by including illustrations of the majority of pigments of importance to the food industry. Finally we have rearranged the order of the chapters to reflect a more logical sequence. We hope this new edition will be greeted as enthusiastically as the first. It remains for us, as editors, to thank our contributors for undertaking the revisions with such thoroughness and to thank Blackie A&P for their support and considerable patience. G. A. F. R. J. D.
