One of the best historical aromatherapy books available.

good reading

A classic in Aromatherapy....

This is the best book ever on aromatherapy.

This is an older book so some information is dated. This book was copyrighted in 1980. It is chuck full of important information that some of the newer books don't touch on. This book was written by Dr. Jean Valnet M.D. One statement in the forward really sums up why I love this book: "This book, I trust, will in certain of it's aspects serve as one of those direct links between modern knowledge and the experience of the past". This book was edited by Robert Tisserand, author of Essential Oil Safety. Some of the information included in this book includes: A short history of the oil or plant, Principal known constitutes, Properties, Indications, Method of use, and other varieties. English and Botanicals Names, Therapeutic Index and some Formulea for Prescriptions in Current Use. Also formulea of medicinal wine and vinegars, elixirs and compound preparations - and so much more!! This book is full of it - but in a good way.

Excellent coverage of the subject with many remedies that are ignored today.
