Foreword

Nanoscience knowledge has been developed exponentially over the last 20 years. We now have a much clearer understanding of novel drug delivery system technologies. The improvement of herbal nanoscience technology has accepted the creation of a new novel drug delivery system that uses physical enhancers for many of the mentioned therapeutical applications.

The aim of the book entitled "Advanced Pharmaceutical Herbal Nanoscience:Targeted Drug Delivery System" is to offer an understanding of various herbal novel drug delivery systems, their preparations, characterisation and exciting range of applications. Herbal nanoscience targeted drug delivery system demands a broad range of awareness in novel drug delivery systems. It is very important to have detailed knowledge and awareness of new technology or new process about the various herbal nanoscience products and their composition. The awareness of knowledge about the properties of various herbal constituents of a nanoformulation is also very important because it decides the determination of the formulation of the delivery systems and broadly ensures its properties. This book covers a broad spectrum of herbal nanoscience topics required for appropriately providing formulation procedures, evaluation and applications of herbal drug delivery systems and correlate it with treating many diseases. The book not only focuses on theoretical knowledge but also considers its practical aspects. The book is quite beneficial for students and researchers across the globe who are indulged in the reading and investigation of advanced pharmaceutical herbal nanoscience and related nanotechnology.

This book offers an overview of the latest trends in advanced pharmaceutical herbal anoscience targeted drug delivery system. The book covers research targets at various hierarchical levels of herbal novel drug delivery systems, from the nano molecular level up to the psychological implications. The richness of the information and the coverage of the topics are the strengths of this book, which offers the informed reader a mixture of the herbal delivery system in vivid disease and new technology in advanced pharmaceutical herbal nanoscience targeted drug delivery system. In this book, the current volume should be considered useful to stimulate innovative interdisciplinary research pathways.

The contributors to this text have been directed to emphasize updates on above mentioned herbal nanoscience technologies involved in therapeutic applications. Authors were selected due to their knowledge and reputation in their subject area and for their ability to address the topics of this book objectively. I strongly feel that this addition to literature will be particularly useful to undergraduate pharmacy/post-graduate pharmacy students/scientists/industry/ academics. The book will serve as a sound source of systematic information for the herbal nanoscience targeted drug delivery system.
