and this is a book I would recommend to anyone who wants to dive in deeper
If you want to get up to speed quickly on the latest research involving essential oils, THIS is your book! It will make you dig in that grey matter for your high school chemistry and biology just enough but not too much. Dr Plant and Dr Johnson have taken VERY advanced scientific discussions and condensed them down to English that is something anyone can understand, while still maintaining EVERY bit of scientific integrity. This is a short book that will get you up to speed fast. The back half is full of blends, recipes and combinations of essential oils based on actual research not myth and hearsay. I have taken many essential oil courses, and this is a book I would recommend to anyone who wants to dive in deeper, get up to speed, but perhaps does not want to read a 300 page tome on essential oil chemistry.

Dirty trick
I was quite disappointed by the end of this book. For all the author writes about synergy, epigenetics and telomere length, there is no follow up on how to apply essential oils to take advantage of these three vital areas. In fact, there is a recipe section that is about one-half the book, BUT with the exception of 4 recipes for the body, the rest are all laundry soap, deodorant, toothpaste and etc.My deep disappointment is now that I know that essential oils can be synergistic I want to know what oils are synergistic with each other. Also, it is great that essential oils can affect telomers, but how do I go about that? Take what oils internally or breath them or what?!IMO is was a dirty trick of the author to only give part of the knowledge. If I cannot apply what I learn, then what is the point? 2 stars for making me aware and minus 3 for his dirty trick.

Somewhat disappointed
First half of book was very interesting and informative. Second half is only recipes. While the recipes look fine, I would have much preferred more info like the first half.

This is a very detailed book. Science is not my favorite subject, but still got a lot out of Dr. Johnsons book. But my favorite part is the recipes!

Finally! Science to support the anecdotal!
As a "recovering" drug rep, I find the use of natural remedies fascinating, but I am also data driven. This book gets it done! Data are finally available to support what we have always thought and helps bring western science to eastern wisdom. A must have for the enlightens healthy mind.
