In this extraordinary compendium of information on herbal medicine, Medicinal Plants of the World, Ivan A. Ross comprehensively documents the medicinal value of twenty-six major plant species widely used around the world in medicinal formulations. The book's exhaustive summary of available scientific data for each plant provides detailed information on how the plant is used in different countries, describing its traditional therapeutic applications and what is known from its use in clinical trials. Additional material presented includes a botanical description of each plant with a color photo of most plants for identification, the common names used for the plant throughout the world, and a listing of the plant's known chemical constituents. A comprehensive bibliography of over 1500 references illuminates the literature available from a wide range of disciplines. Medicinal Plants of the World offers an unprecedented collection of vital scientific information for pharmacologists, herbal medicine practitioners, drug developers, phytochemists, medicinal chemists, phytologists, toxicologists, and researchers who want to explore the use of plant materials for medicinal and related purposes. Its wealth of significant facts will reveal little-known information about these plants and open application horizons for the drugs found in these plants. As the first volume of the series, Medicinal Plants of the World constitutes a new standard reference in the field, one that will serve as en essential tool for integrating traditional herbal use and modern medical practice.

Plant essential oils (PEOs) are hydrophobic liquids that contain volatile chemical components that are derived from various plant parts. They are among the most important plant natural products because of their diverse biological features as well as their therapeutic and nutritional applications. In addition, several aromatic PEOs are used to flavor food and add aromas to incense in the culinary sector. Recently, many PEOs have demonstrated promising antimicrobial activity against different post-harvest diseases and have been considered as possible natural alternatives for chemical treatments. This Special Issue titled “Plant Essential Oil with Biological Activity” provided an overview of several elements of PEOs, including their biological applications, antimicrobial activities, bio-pharmaceutical properties, principal single constituents, and mechanisms of action. This Special Issues fills in knowledge gaps and aids in the advancement of EO applications around the world. This issue contains thirteen research articles and two review papers that address a wide range of topics and applications relevant to the bioactivity of PEOs.
