Abstract

Employed early in his career by Sir Joseph Banks, the botanist John Lindley (1799-1865) is best known for his recommendation that Kew Gardens should become a national botanical institution, and for saving the Royal Horticultural Society from financial disaster. As an author, he is best remembered for his various works on taxonomy and classification. This work, one of his most famous, was first published in 1846; reissued here is the revised third edition of 1847. Lindley describes his motive as being 'to make his countrymen acquainted with the progress of Systematic Botany abroad' given that the 'superficial and useless system of Linnaeus' was now consigned to history. The work, nonetheless an important milestone in the development of plant taxonomy, gives an overview of the various classification systems used since that of John Ray, and goes on to define the vegetable kingdom in terms of classes and 'alliances' of plants.

Abstract

Following the Milan Universal Exposition, the scientific debate about food and nutrition has gained particular attention in 2015. As a result, this volume focuses on issues related to food safety, consumption, research and technology. Within the Hórisma project, funded by the University of Milano-Bicocca and the University of Milan, four young scholars investigated the possible developments of food production and consumption from different perspectives through a critical analysis on food trends in the international scenario. The main theme that links all the essays collected in this book is the belief that stimulating dialogue among different disciplines, as well as promoting an integrated and multidisciplinary approach, is crucial to face all the issues concerning food and its connections to law, technology, society, and science.

Abstract

Medicinal Plants: Chemistry, Biology and Omics reviews the phytochemistry, chemotaxonomy, molecular biology, and phylogeny of selected medicinal plant tribes and genera, and their relevance to drug efficacy. Medicinal plants provide a myriad of pharmaceutically active components, which have been commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine and worldwide for thousands of years. Increasing interest in plant-based medicinal resources has led to additional discoveries of many novel compounds, in various angiosperm and gymnosperm species, and investigations on their chemotaxonomy, molecular ph
