Some reviews of this book. Having had a sneak preview of this book I think it will be a valuable reference tool for those who are just getting into the industry and those like myself who trained a long time ago! Liz writes in an easy read style which is almost like you are having a conversation in the room with her. Sue Mousley - Former Chairman of The International Federation of Aromatherapists Less than 300 ebook length pages.?... a 'complete guide' ? No.- highly unlikely ... well that's what I thought until I read my free preview copy. I qualified as an holistic aromatherapist 14 years ago and have a considerable library of essential oil/ massage/ complementary therapy related books. This is an easy to read, well-informed book that any 'newbie' with an interest in oils will find fascinating - it is engaging in content and style and will ensure that interest is piqued... For someone who has used oils for a number of years, it is a perfect 'go to' single volume that is crammed with easily findable notes on oils AND conditions. Well done Elizabeth Ashley - you have found, and filled, a gap in a market which is increasingly crammed with poorly written, poorly researched books that are aimed at mass appeal rather than enlightening readers about aromatherapy's true potential for healing!!!
