  • Samir Boumediene is a CNR researcher at the Institute d'histoire des représentations et des idées dans les modernités in Lyon (France), and this book is product of his PhD dissertation at the University of Lorraine. Boumediene presents in this well-researched monograph the extent of European colonisation and appropriation of Indigenous knowledge by focusing on medicinal plants from the New World, their transmission, and later integration into European markets and consumer culture.
