Customer Review: Useful, important book. Highly recommend it.
This book is turning out to be a valuable tool for me in practice and teaching. I recommend it for students, teachers and health practitioners who want to use essential oils to enhance patient care. It is well-written, objective, practical and has extensive references, summary tables, appendices and index. As a physician, I appreciate its integrative approach. It is a good synthesis of history, chemistry, safety issues, experience, basic science, some of the most current clinical research, clinical applications and more. I especially liked the section on infection. In my opinion, it is an important work, which could well influence future research and clinical use of essential oils in the United States.
Customer Review: Outstanding Resource
This is a great book for any health professional wishing to enhance patient care with aromatherapy. As a nurse, I find it to be an outstanding resource full of scientifically based information related to essential oils and their uses. Dr Buckle has included an easy to use index to guide the reader to information on a variety of diseases and conditions which respond to aromatherapy intervention. This is a “must read” for anyone incorporating aromatherapy into a clinical or community setting.

Customer Review: Informative
Having read most available books on aromatherapy, this one is by far the best. It’s easy to read, inspiring me to go out and buy all the oils to enjoy the many easy recipes for mood enhancement, relaxation etc. For a mature woman, the recipes and advice using all natural therapies, have really helped alleviate many “women’s problems” and made my home a place of warmth, love and (when I want to) seclusion. It certainly helped me heal myself. I’m already looking forward to her next book!
