About this title

Synopsis

Natural Compounds in Cancer Therapy is a classic reference work for patients and medical professionals interested in use of nontoxic botanical compounds in the treatment of cancer. It offers a snapshot of the field circa 2001, and its insights are still pertinent today. Natural Compounds in Cancer Therapy is among the first books to discuss the use of natural products against cancer from a systems biology perspective.

Review

"This authoritative and thorough review of the use of natural products [in cancer treatment] is one of the best in the field of herbal medicine. ...highly recommended..."
Choice (Current Reviews for Academic Libraries), a publication of the Association of College & Research Libraries

"A jewel...clear, crisp.. concise and useful. The scope is incredible. Not simply a regurgitation of the literature, but a thoughtful and well-balanced interpretation and analysis of the data." Pharmaceutical Biology

"This book must be the ultimate reference of current knowledge on the use of natural compounds in chemotherapy. ...packed with scientific information...extremely well referenced...this book opens the mind to some new ways of thinking about treating cancers."
International Journal of Pharmaceutical Medicine

"...Very important....This is a must-have for anyone interested in botanical medicine."
Bloomsbury Review

"The author has invested substantial amount of time on converting otherwise difficult to dissect information into a pleasingly easy to read format for readers of all levels. ...a fine reference book for research and clinical scientists..."
