Well Done Reference by J. Bailey (Oregon, USA)  4 Stars
August 02, 2009
Well-done reference guide with good cross-referenceing of indications, oils, contraindications, etc. There are a few oils missing from the detailed reference area, but overall this is my favorite book on the subject - and worth the cost. Nice clinical study citations, too.
