The growing economy of the developing world particularly in East and South Asia are leading to increasing urbanization industrialization and motorization. Urban areas have almost half the population of many of these countries. Manufacturing and services once distant competitors to the largely agrarian economies have together surpassed agricultural contributions. Vehicles have exploded to keep pace with rising incomes and needs. With the developing world there is also an increase in the number of chronic diseases like asthma arthritis diabetes etc. Although most people have heard of asthma few know exactly what asthma is or how seriously it affects the lives of people of all ages all around the world. Asthma is a respiratory disease that is chronic which means that it is always present and there is no cure for the condition. For those that live with the condition their lungs airways and breathing passages are very sensitive more sensitive than other non asthmatic people. This sensitivity leads to inflamed and swollen breathing passages that make breathing difficult. In addition the muscles that control the breathing passages begin to spasm pulling the already inflamed air passages tighter together and there is a marked decrease in the size of the airways sometimes even complete closure resulting in asthma. 416 pp.

Arthritis literally means inflammation of one or more joints. Arthritis is frequently accompanied by joint pain. A joint is an area of the body where two different bones meet. A joint functions to move the body parts connected by its bones. Osteoarthritis is a chronic condition characterized by the breakdown of the joint's cartilage. Cartilage is the part of the joint that cushions the ends of the bones and allows easy movement of joints. The breakdown of cartilage causes the bones to rub against each other causing stiffness pain and loss of movement in the joint. Osteoarthritis is known by many different names including degenerative joint disease Osteoarthrosis hypertrophy arthritis and degenerative arthritis. Rheumatoid Arthritis is traditionally considered a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disorder that causes the immune system to attack the joints. It is a disabling and painful inflammatory condition which can lead to substantial loss of mobility due to pain and joint destruction. RA is a systemic disease often affecting extra articular tissues throughout the body including the skin blood vessels heart lungs and muscles. 462 pp.

Herbal medicine is the oldest form of health care known to mankind. Herbs had been used by all culture throughout history. It was an integral part of the development of modern civilization. Primitive man observed and appreciated the great diversity of plants available to him. As time went on the tribe added the medicinal power of herbs in their area to its knowledge base. They methodically collected information on herbs and developed well defined scientific medicine was derived from the herbal lore of native people. Many drugs commonly used today are of herbal origin. The approach of herbal medicine is not just about alleviating symptoms. More importantly it is concerned with helping the body cure itself. We have abandoned the basic folk wisdom of generations in favour of synthetic drugs which might not stand the test of time. Sensing this demand the material of this book has been compiled to help the scientists to keep themselves abreast of the latest developments. This book will cater to the immediate needs of the students researchers faculty members and pharmaceutical industries in India and abroad. 296 pp.

According to WHO out of an estimated total of 50 million deaths annually in the world more than 5 million are attributed to cancer and the number of deaths from cancer throughout the world is increasing. Today medicine has its roots in to natural plant products. Most of the drugs in plants accumulated in several years and sometimes the required plants may not be available or is inadequate but the production of the formulation will be required to meet the demand. In this context it is note worthy that the international market for herbal products is estimated at U.S. dollars 62 billion and as per WHO projections it is expected to rise to U.S. dollars 5 trillion by 2050 A.D. Cancer is thus regarded as an emerging health problem in India. 416 pp.

It has developed into an important force in the creation of employment production and trade and affects national economy and the quality of human life throughout the world. The range and the significance of biotechnological activities is expanding at an ever increasing rate so that the impact of biotechnology on the world economy and human welfare is likely to be far greater than that of any other discipline. It is projected that the twenty first century belongs to biotechnology just as the later half of the present century was dominated by electronics. Sensing this demand the articles of the book have been compiled to help the genetic engineers and also the biotechnologists to keep themselves abreast of the latest developments. This book will cater to the immediate needs of the students researchers faculty members and pharmaceutical industries in India and abroad. 574 pp.
