Comprising 32 chapters in five parts, the volume includes two brief sections devoted to safety (part 2) and regulation (part 3) of natural products in use. The book is detailed and technical throughout, its chapters having been contributed by experts in their fields, and is therefore predominantly intended for researchers and professionals.'--P. W.
