This book introduces the methodology for collection and identification of herbal materials, extraction and isolation of compounds from herbs, bioassay, animal test, toxicology, and clinical trials of herbal research. To fully understand and make the best use of herbal medicines requires the close combination of chemistry, biochemistry, biology, pharmacology, and clinical science.
