Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book embarks on a comprehensive exploration of medical botany, addressing a gap in American medical literature at the time of its publication. In contrast to expensive European treatises or brief notices in materia medica texts, this work offers a systematic and accessible approach to understanding medicinal plants. While acknowledging the value of existing practical guides on medicinal substances, the author emphasizes the need for a dedicated resource on the botanical characteristics and historical context of these plants. The book delves into the intricacies of plant anatomy and physiology, providing a foundation for comprehending the diverse forms and functions of medicinal flora. Employing a modified natural system of classification, the author meticulously describes key medicinal plants, drawing from authoritative sources and incorporating insights from renowned American botanists. The inclusion of an introduction to plant structure, a glossary of botanical terms, and a conspectus of natural orders enhances the book's practicality for students and practitioners alike. Through its detailed descriptions and historical references, this work not only serves as a valuable companion to existing materia medica texts but also sheds light on the rich botanical heritage and therapeutic potential of medicinal plants. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
