The book contains review articles providing a comprehensive overview of cannabis/marijuana's diverse healing aspects in human healthcare (medicinal, nutraceutical, skincare, etc.). The research articles include the role of cannabis in cancer treatment, drug discovery, cosmeceutical potential, prophylactic and therapeutic use for treating neuropathic pain and migraine, pharmacokinetics, safety profile, and issues related to the consumption of cannabis/marijuana. Another salient feature of the book is a complete mapping and region- and sector-wise critical analysis of cannabis/marijuana patents on healthcare and future directions for the benefit of researchers and businesses/entrepreneurs interested in the rapidly advancing area of cannabis.

The text describes cannabis/marijuana's detailed legal aspects, production prospects, and applications for healthcare and recreational purposes in the USA. It traces the traditional roots of cannabis use in Turkey, Israel, the Middle East, Africa, and India.  

This unique compendium of articles will be useful as a reference book for students, researchers, academics, business houses, and all individuals interested in medicinal, nutraceutical, cosmeceutical, traditional, legal, and commercial aspects of cannabis usage.
