Download or read book Popular Medicinal Plants in Portland and Kingston Jamaica written by Ina Vandebroek and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-05 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights the results from over a year of ethnobotanical research in a rural and an urban community in Jamaica, where we interviewed more than 100 people who use medicinal plants for healthcare. The goal of this research was to better understand patterns of medicinal plant knowledge, and to find out which plants are used in consensus by local people for a variety of illnesses. For this book, we selected 25 popular medicinal plant species mentioned during fieldwork. Through individual interviews, we were able to rank plants according to their frequency of mention, and categorized the medicinal uses for each species as “major” (mentioned by more than 20% of people in a community) or “minor” (mentioned by more than 5%, but less than 20% of people). Botanical identification of plant specimens collected in the wild allowed for cross-linking of common and scientific plant names. To supplement field research, we undertook a comprehensive search and review of the ethnobotanical and biomedical literature. Our book summarizes all this information in detail under specific sub-headings.
Download or read book Sailing Thru Land Eternal written by Nelleke Meuzelaar and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a sequel to Flying Angel. It completes the Project MARC story in Vanuatu while inviting you aboard SV Rivendel II on some of the ocean passages that brought her there (e.g., a 1994 Hawaii crossing and her final trip to Brisbane [2008] after eight years of crisscrossing Vanuatu's outer islands with teams of doctors and teachers plus supplies and small flotillas of other sailing vessels). When providing care or training village health workers, language flubs or cultural goofs would regularly create hilarious situations that broke the ice and, with luck, prompted jaw-dropping tales of black magic, sorcerers, mountain spirits, or cannibalism in return. These are the stories of black and white people, with their hopes and fears of trying to survive Land Eternal by the grace of God.
