From the cover: "The medicinal use of the African flora is the heart of Jean Pujol's book. It also gives us a step-by-step study of various kinds of medicinal plants that are used overseas in the field of Phytotherapy and for oil remedies".

"Many of the African plant remedies that he recommends make the bulk of Zulu and Xhosa folk medicine".

"In this book Pujol analyses the principles of the African therapeutic system and the methods which are used by the old class of Herbalists known as Inyangas (which are classified as Naturopaths)".

"He reveals the formulae that have stood the test of time of many generations of tribal doctors and sangomas. The medicinal use of a wide range of herbs that actually heal the Zulu and Xhosa communities has been recorded here".
