The book emphasizes the importance of understanding the cultural, countrywide, environmental, and scientific importance of these medicinal plants.
Some of the 50 plants covered in this work include: ayahuasca, ginger, kanna, dream herb, iboga, peyote, canary broom, coral tree, catnip, wild rue, kava, mandrake, and golden angel's trumpet. Each chapter includes information on historical plant use and identification of chemical compounds, and explains modern medicinal uses.
