Statistical Models of Plant Functions in Jamu Medicines

With the increasing concern for humans to return to nature, natural materials-based treatment approaches are becoming increasingly attractive. Jamu, a common name of Indonesian traditional medicines, are made from a mixture of several plants. The plants are chosen so that the Jamu has the desired efficacy. This book presents a statistical modeling approach to understand the pattern of the herbs usage and its relation to the efficacy of Jamu.
