The Constituents of Medicinal Plants, 3rd Edition by Andrew Pengelly This comprehensive guide explains the chemical constituents of medicinal plants and their interactions with the human body. The book covers the major classes of plant constituents, including phenols, terpenes, and polysaccharides, and describes their chemical structures and pharmacological activities. The third edition has been thoroughly revised to incorporate the latest research in phytochemistry, with new chapters on resins and cannabinoids, and additional content on macrocarpals, essential oil chemotypes, mushroom polysaccharides, phytochemical synergy, and the toxicology of phytochemicals.
