Book excerpt: A guide to the identification of all the woody plants (c. 2,250 species in 740 genera) of the forest region of West Africa called 'Upper Guinea', between Togo and Senegal. Upper Guinea is one of the world's most important centres of biodiversity, from the mountain forests of Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone, to the lowland evergreen, and semideciduous forests widespread also in Ghana and Ivory Coast. This comprehensively illustrated guide will play a vital supportive role in the challenge of sustainable development within the forest region of West Africa, helping to promote best practice in the management of its plants and forests.
Download or read book Medicinal Plants in Tropical West Africa written by Bep Oliver-Bever and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1986-01-23 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1986, this book describes the most important medicinal plants in tropical West Africa and similar humid tropical climates. After a short introduction about early traditional medicine, the bulk of the book gives an account of locally occurring plants, grouped by their medicinal actions. Plants that affect the cardiovascular and nervous systems are discussed, as are those with antibiotic, insecticidal and molluscicidal properties. Those which affect the hormonal systems of humans are catalogued and so are others that act as adrenal-cortex, sex and thyroid hormones. There is a full botanical index, which includes the commonly found synonyms for many of the plants and the work is illustrated by the author's own water colours. It may be of particular interest and use to pharmacists, biochemists, botanists and pharmacologists and of great value to those who exploit locally available resources in treating diseases in tropical areas.
Download or read book The Flowering Plants of Africa written by Franz Thonner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-19 with total page 820 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Flowering Plants of Africa: An Analytical Key to the Genera of African Phanerogams As the present work is intended for the use not only of botanists, but also of colonists and travellers in Africa, who take an interest in botany, I have used, wherever it was possible, as distinctive characters, those which are visible to the naked eye in a plant in ower, being careful, however, not to deviate too much from the natural system. Besides the diagnostic characters of the genera, I have also indicated the approximative number of the species described to the end of the year 1910, their geographical distribution, their uses, and their more important synonyms. As to the terms used in indicating the geographical distribution of African plants, North Africa (including North-west and North-east Africa) means all northern extratropical Africa, South Africa (including South west and South-east Africa) southern extratropical Africa, tropical Africa Africa within the tropics, including all islands, whereas the continent of Africa within the tropics including only the small islands in the proximity of the coast. Is designated by Central Africa. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
