nice compact visually appealing book for beginners

in seven words that's my review of this book. i think it's great value for your money. let me say that i have 5 or 6 books on aromatherapy, and this is one of the books i like best and keep opening to read or just to look at from time to time. (the other being Gabriel Mojay's aromatherapy for healing the spirit.) this book is just about right for beginners, with clear, concise descriptions of different oils, often with pictures of the plants or flowers or fruits they came from. there are very helpful sections on starting out, like choosing oils, what they're good for, proper storage, what materials you will need. there even is a step-by-step guide to an aromatherapy massage. for a rather short and small book, this one sure packs a lot of power. i am very delighted to have bought it. this book does a great job of whetting your appetite for more information on aromatherapy.
