Summary: The Art of Aromatherapy
Review: An attractive and informative small book that gives basic information about essential oils used in aromatherapy for over 25 different oils such as Chamomile, Eucalyptus, Jasmine and Lavender--to name a few. The pictures are just beautiful and the write-up is done in fancy lettering. It makes a wonderful gift. In each section, there is a description and history, a medicinal section and properties for each oil. My favorite is LAVENDER: Did you know that Lavender Oil is used as the basic ingredient of many fragrances? Lavender has a calming effect and this book recommends a drop of lavender oil on your pillow or in your bath to promote a restful sleep. Properties of lavender include a muscle relaxant, sedative, antidepressant and others....

Summary: A comprehensive, quick reference
Review: If you have been wondering what Aromatherapy & essentialoils are all about this is a good book to start you off. This booklists the most common & some not so common essential oils &their uses. It also gives a brief history of each particular essential oil & what plant it comes from. Also, how to mix with a carrier oil as essential oils must be diluted. It provides a good all-around quick reference to understanding & using essential oils.
