Aromatic oils have been used for thousands of years not only for their fragrance but for culinary, therapeutic, ritual, and spiritual purposes. More than a fashionable trend, aromatherapy is coming into its own as a body of knowledge and practice with specific applications that have a solid scientific base. Drawing on research and clinical studies, Peter and Kate Damian look at many applications from treating viral infections with garlic or black pepper oil to using rose oil to relax patients undergoing chemotherapy; from aromatic massage to the andquot;environmental fragrancingandquot; of subways and supermarkets."

•Provides a thorough exposition of the ancient practice of aromatics in China, India, Persia, and Egypt

•Details our modern scientific understanding of the physiology and psychology of scent."
