Popis: The proper use of phytomedicines in human health care may add a dimension currently lacking in the United States in the treatment of certain diseases and syndromes. Sales of botanicals have been rising for the past few years and are expected to increase 12% to 16% annually for the next few years. As agriculturists, we are developing production techniques using good management practices to grow and process these new crops. However, a fundamental understanding of the genesis of this "new" industry is needed to appreciate the historic use of herbs and significance in society.
