Medicinal Plants of East Africa is a fully illustrated guide to 136 East African plants with important medicinal applications. Initially released in 2010, this fully revised edition updates the species descriptions, photographs and range of medicinal uses, and expands on the pharmacological properties of the plant parts.

Supported by more than 600 photographs, the book:
- describes the characters and ecology of each plant to aid identification
- lists indigenous names of species in 92 languages spoken in the region
- details the medicinal uses of the different plant parts by drawing on traditional knowledge
- includes recipes for the preparation and administration of remedies used to treat common ailments and afflictions
- discusses the active chemical compounds found in each plant to explain and unpack the healing properties at work

Covering Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda, this volume is a vital addition to the bookshelves of botanists, health and wellness practitioners, students, travelers, and all who have an interest in the healing properties of plants.
