Reviews “Our societies find themselves burdened with a growing number of CNS disorders and diabetes, and augmentation of the present therapies by incorporating medicines from natural sources is desirable. Dr. Veeranjaneyulu and Dr. Kumar deserve kudos for putting together this book of thoughtful reviews on plants for treatment of major disorders of central nervous systems and diabetes. Written by several scientists, this book thus fulfills the need for a quick reference and will certainly rekindle interest in this area. . . . This book will be of immense value to researchers in the area and I congratulate both editors.” —From the Foreword by Dr. Madhu Dikshit, FNA, FASc, FNASc, JC Bose National Fellow/Director, CSIR-Central Drug Research Institute, India “A valuable guide for modern drug hunters and pharmaceutical industries interested in identification of novel pharmacological therapies for meeting the treatment needs of patients suffering from, or at risk of, diabetes and other non-communicable diseases. Information summarized in this book will certainly be very useful in translating the knowledge and knowhow of practitioners of traditionally known systems of medicine in terms of modern molecular sciences. . . . It cannot be overemphasized that such publications are necessary for evolution of experimental evidence-based holistic medicine.” —Dr. Shyam Sunder Chatterjee, Retired Head of Pharmacology Research Laboratories; Dr. Willmar Schwabe GMBH & Co.KG, Karlsruhe, Germany Now Available in Paperback CONTENTS: About the Authors / Editors: Editors: Vikas Kumar, PhD, MPharm Research and Product Development, National Center for Natural Products Research (NCNPR), School of Pharmacy, University of Mississippi, USA Vikas Kumar, PhD, is currently working in research and product development at the National Center for Natural Products Research (NCNPR), School of Pharmacy, at the University of Mississippi.

AAP support has been truly important throughout the initial and final stages of the book. While the majority of the publishing work is done at the early stages, the final touches that include the last-minute corrections of the authors are extremely crucial to the quality the book tries to convey. The assistance of AAP during the last stages of corrections and communication with the authors was a very positive contributor to my state of mind during those stressful moments. I recommend the publishing experience with AAP to other editors of scientific material.” —Stavros Hatzopoulos, PhD, Hearing Science Laboratory, University Hospital of Ferrara, Ferrara, Italy AAP book title: Nanotechnologies: The Physics of Nanomaterials (2-volume set) “I was very pleased with the interaction and support of the team at Apple Academic Press.
