"This second edition is not a mere reprint of an older classic; it has been thoroughly updated and expanded. …this volume presents a valuable cross-section of the African medicinal flora and useful summaries of largely up-to-date knowledge. All in all, this second edition is a worthy successor to the 1993 edition."—Thomas Brendler, Founder and CEO, Plantaphile; Co-editor, African Herbal Pharmacopoeia, Collingswood, New Jersey, in HerbalGram
"Since the first edition was published, much has changed in the fields of ethnobotany and ethnomedicine. In the preface to the second edition of his book, Dr. Iwu acknowledges the enormous body of knowledge that has become available over the last twenty years. He felt that it was critical to add new, relevant information … to review the medicinal plants currently used as phytomedicines that were, for the most part, unknown in 1993.I found Dr. Iwu's Handbook of Major African Medicinal Plants impressively detailed and well presented … . While Dr. Iwu indicates that this is a book for scientists developing new medicines and practitioners of herbal medicine, I suggest that this is a book that should also be read by Western medical doctors who either work or volunteer their services in rural African clinics and hospitals.I commend the time, energy, and knowledge that Dr. Iwu has invested in both editions of his book. This is a truly valuable resource that I hope will be used prolifically and expanded upon."—Patricia Rain, The Vanilla Company
"Iwu continues to write elegantly and persuasively about the cultural issues surrounding the integration of Western and traditional African medicine…. Above all, there is a new emphasis on the potential economic impact that the plants of Africa could bring to the continent. Iwu devotes more space to keenly detailing the commercial utilization of native agricultural products. Updated sections on commerce and the creation of value-added products feature prominently in the descriptions of many species. It is undeniably an exceptional and absorbing collection of botanical, ethnomedical, and pharmacological information. It is an efficient collection of botanical information about a diverse and large portion of the earth. Certainly this updated edition would make a rich and interesting manual for a class on African medicinal plants."—John de la Parra, Northeastern University, Boston, MA, Economic Botany
Praise for the First Edition:"The book gives a good description of African medicinal plants and their use within the general African culture …. This is an interesting handbook for phytochemists, pharmacologists, anthropologists, or anyone who is interested in African medicinal plants…. A pioneer work on African medicinal plants…. Our congratulations go to the author and publishers for producing such an interesting book."—Nigist Asfaw and Sebsebe Demissew, The National Herbarium Science Faculty, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, Economic Botany, Vol. 48, No. 1, 1994
"A vast topic, medicinal plants in the wide expanse of Africa, is well covered in this work. Primarily for medical library collections, but will interest anyone concerned with ethnobotany and African culture."—C.T. Mason, Jr., University of Arizona, as quoted in CHOICE, June 1994

From the reviews:"The first three chapters of the book provide important foundational information. ...Chapters 4, 6, and 7 are the stars of this book. The authors lay out in great detail the complex process of arriving at a measure of treatment effect. We statisticians are so used to having this handed to us that we never think about how important this process is. The authors also provide pragmatic advice about whether to select your sample to be mildly ill or seriously ill, or whether you should choose healthy volunteers instead." Steve Simon, Journal of Biopharmaceutical Statistics, Issue 2, 2008"Main aim of this book is to explain the three pillars of clinical research: medicine, statistics and logistics in an easily digestible manner. … A very lucid and well-structured account of the basic statistical and epidemiological concepts is definitely a great plus point of this book … . I have truly enjoyed reading this book and it gives a refreshing and focused outline of the clinical research. I would recommend all clinicians who aspire to be/are involved in clinical research to give it an audience." (Faisel Yunus, Journal of Applied Statistics, Vol. 35 (2), 2008)"Readership: … the clinical researcher who wants an intelligent discussion on the (mainly) statistical aspects of clinical research. It would make a useful background reading for a course in clinical trials. … The book is well written. … is essentially an extended essay on the application of statistical inference in clinical research." (M. J. Campbell, International Statistical Review, Vol. 75 (3), 2007)"A comprehensive introductory text that addresses statistical methods and operational issues in the conduct of clinical research. ... The authors avoid overuse of mathematical formulas and carefully balance practical and theoretical aspects of clinical research. Format and writing clarity are good, with numerous examples used to illustrate concepts throughout the text. ... Recommended Readership: Doctoral and postdoctoral trainees and junior or research inexperienced clinical researchers and scientists." (Paul V. Targonslci, Mayo Clinic Proceedings, Vol. 82 (11), November, 2007)"The text is directed toward physicians conducting clinical trials research and statisticians consulting on clinical trials. … I recommend it for physicians, statisticians, and technical personnel with a novice knowledge level of clinical trials. At the same time it could be used as a text for an introductory graduate level class in clinical trials. To those entering the field of clinical trials I wholeheartedly recommend Fundamentals of Clinical Research … as it provides a foundation pertinent to a variety of aspects of clinical trials research." (Gregory E. Gilbert, The American Statistician, Vol. 63 (1), February, 2009)“The authors’ book on methods and issues in clinical research is directed at biomedical researchers as well as statisticians. … it addresses the integration of medical and statistical components of clinical research in order to create a logical flow of reasoning understandable for both the medical/biological and the statistical expert. … The whole book is written in a convenient, comprehensible style … and is therefore useful also for readers having more advanced knowledge and experience in the field of clinical trials.” (Lutz Edler, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1210, 2011)
