THE WORLD OF AROMATHERAPY/jeanne rose I found this collection of essays by 35 of the best known names/teachers in aromatherapy to be excellent. Here is information written with verve and style about distillation, hydrosols, aromatic chemistry, botany, ancient Egyptian embalming with essential oils and unguents. A fabulous skin care chapter is followed by a delicious essay by Barbara Bobo 'bathing in the souls of flowers', there is an entire section on nurturing yourself through pregnancy with essential oils and how to take care of children with the correct essential oils. How can you miss the blending essential oils for personal perf. Lorraine Oconnor said Three Stars. not in as good condition as expected but it's fine. "I keep this book near my essential oil stash!" according to Spin Again. I have owned this book for a couple of years and find myself using it as my main essential oil reference. It is said when the student is ready the teacher appears. Because this book is actually the combined work of many teachers it seems this student (me) happens upon just the right intriguing oil blend at just the right time on an almost weekly basis.One article entitled the Medicine Tin of Five Essential Oils was so helpful it inspired me to create my own seasonal gift pack which includes the involved oils. My friends it.
