The Directory of Essential Oils Includes More Than 80 Essential Oils Wanda Sellar 9780091906672 Books Reviews

• Starting out, you really can't do much better than this reference. It's an alphabetical listing of many oils along with some history and lore, properties, and usage guidelines. It's a fun, pleasant read (if you can handle a directory-style book) and, best of all, is full of elegant, beautiful illustrations that make it worth the purchase price alone. I really love that Sellar doesn't validate more wild claims as being facts, like other books do. She makes cautious suggestions, making it clear when something can't be documented or attributed. My only fault is that the version is poorly indexed and it's a little bit of a pain to navigate--something that wouldn't be a problem in a print edition.
• This book is wonderful. My teacher was teaching us about aroma therapy and she has the older version of this authors book so I really got to look at it before I bought it. it really has so much about the oils, properties, benefits, and so much more. If your a massage therapist or looking for some herbal remedies this book is great!
• I am very happy with this book. It has two pages on each oil describing the aroma, a description of the plant, the history and myths, chemical constituents, uses, precautions, and other oils it blends well with. At the back is a glossary, a blend chart, which catagorizes the types of oils, and a skin type chart. I have found it easy to use, and helpful in my home creations.
• Nice book! All the info I wanted on each oil, and it's helping me learn to blend oils. Then there's a section on different issues and what oils are good for it.
• I love my book of Essential Oils. I needed a good reference and I got one
• It is a nice thorough review of the oils. I only wish that there would be more on the oils in general.
• What an excellent book. It's full of helpful information!
