"This work will long stand as the standard reference on the subject, and one can only wish Professor Bedigian every success in seeing to completion her taxonomic revision of the genus."

"It has been a life-long goal of Dr. Bedigian to assemble this extraordinary compilation (26 chapters, 36 contributors) defining all aspects of sesame, "a wonderful, but mysterious, plant that has had many uses throughout human agricultural history." This is not a compilation of prior information, but includes new data on traditional medicinal uses, historic documents, and the latest laboratory studies involving medicinal and aromatic constituents of sesame."
