"This is the first peer-reviewed, evidence-based book on clinical aromatherapy. Well-referenced and well-written, it instils confidence and will hopefully change the way that clinical aromatherapy is perceived."

Elizabeth M. Williamson PhD, MRPharmS, FLS - Director of Pharmacy Practice, University of Reading

"For decades, Dr. Buckle has been one of the foremost authorities in Clinical Aromatherapy and the new edition of her book will be a huge milestone for our practice. This edition is a treasure trove of research-based clinical information - it will become an indispensable reference for aromatherapists!"

Barbara Cordell, PhD, RN, AHN-BC, CCAP - Dean of Nursing, Panola College

"In this latest edition of 'Aromatherapy for Health Professionals,' Dr. Jane Buckle provides a much needed resource for health professionals who use or wish to use essential oils in clinical settings. Her wealth of experience as an aromatherapist lends practical credibility to her recommendations, while her nursing and research career in the health care systems of Europe and the U.S. is apparent in both the evidence base of her recommendations and their scientific rationale. I recommend this book to all health professionals."

Linda L. Halcon, PhD, MPH, RN - Chair, Population Health & Systems Cooperative Unit, School of Nursing, University of Minnesota
