The present book titled "A Comprehensive Field Guide to Medicinal Plant Biodiversity of Myanmar and Mauritius" is based on the preliminary survey of medicinal plants of Myanmar and Mauritius under the Indian Technical and Economic Cooperation (ITEC) Programme of Govt. of India. The present study and survey tours reveal the identification of more than six hundred medicinal plants found in the forest areas, nearby population areas and also in the botanical gardens. In addition to the compilation of the plants species, the information about their medicinal values and other important uses has also been obtained from locals. The information gathered during the survey included Ayurvedic plants found in these areas, possibility of propagation of the plants in the gardens, indigenous remedies and the traditional claims, guidelines for pharmaceutical assessment, product information for drug standardization, classification and preparation of drugs, manufacturing of drugs in Pharmacies and Drugs and Cosmetics Act, etc. The present text book is divided into five chapters, in which the first chapter is based on the background of Myanmar including its people, tradition, agriculture, and other useful information. The second chapter covered general information about Mauritius Island with major emphasis on the traditional medicinal system of the country and its trade. The details of about 500 plants are given in chapters 3-5. Chapter 3 covers medicinal plants found in Myanmar but not in Mauritius whereas Chapter 4 is comprised of the medicinal plants of Mauritius, which are not found in Myanmar. All the common plants, which are often found in both the countries, have been described in Chapter 5. The vernacular name, taxonomy, occurrence, phytochemistry, traditional and biological importance of each plant is described in a concise way. In addition, photographs of selected plants are also given in a separate section. This text book can be used as a field guide during the survey of medicinal plants. We hope that this information in the form of a book will certainly be beneficial to readers, especially to students of plant science and other relevant subjects.

Medicinal Plants In Tropical West Africa written by Bep Oliver-Bever and has been published by Cambridge University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1986-01-23 with Health & Fitness categories.
First published in 1986, this book describes the most important medicinal plants in tropical West Africa and similar humid tropical climates. After a short introduction about early traditional medicine, the bulk of the book gives an account of locally occurring plants, grouped by their medicinal actions. Plants that affect the cardiovascular and nervous systems are discussed, as are those with antibiotic, insecticidal and molluscicidal properties. Those which affect the hormonal systems of humans are catalogued and so are others that act as adrenal-cortex, sex and thyroid hormones. There is a full botanical index, which includes the commonly found synonyms for many of the plants and the work is illustrated by the author's own water colours. It may be of particular interest and use to pharmacists, biochemists, botanists and pharmacologists and of great value to those who exploit locally available resources in treating diseases in tropical areas.

Ameenah Gurib-Fakim served as the 6th and first female President of the Republic of Mauritius (June 5, 2015-March 23, 2018). She holds a BSc (Chemistry) from the University of Surrey and a PhD (Organic Chemistry) from the University of Exeter, UK. She has been awarded five Honorary Doctorates (DSc).A life-long scientist, academician, entrepreneur and an "accidental" President who came to the high office without any political affiliations. She was the first female Professor of Chemistry with an endowed chair at the University of Mauritius and became the first academician to have translated her research work on medicinal plants into an enterprise. She is also a mother of two grown children and is married to Dr. Anwar Fakim, a practicing surgeon.A prolific author, she has published on a diverse range of subjects, authored and co-authored books and scientific articles on medicinal plants. She is a sought-after speaker. Her 2014 TED talk on medicinal plants has garneredover a million hits and has been translated into 24 languages. In this autobiography, she retraces her journey from the small village of Plaine Magnien, where she grew up and given its ethnic, social and cultural diversity, she considers it to be a microcosm of the world. She takes the reader through her journey that has encompassed academic, entrepreneurial and political spheres, ultimately reaching the highest position in the country as President of the Republic. She also writes about the changing political vicissitudes in Mauritius. As the gender gap narrows and women's aspirations rise, her narrative offers compelling commentary and enduring lessons of experience that will find broad appeal among women in all professional walks of life. A firm believer in the notion that countries must invest in their young people and empower them with the tools of science and technology, she is devoting her post-Presidency life to advancing Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education so that all Mauritians, indeed all Africans can stay economically, technologically and scientifically competitive in a rapidlytransforming global economy. This theme has been the leit motif of her life and remains very close to her heart.
