Easy to Use and Search
The book has everything at your fingertips for easy searching of ailments or oils or oil blends with nice glossy pages and colorful pictures. This is definitely geared toward the Doterra user. Although, it is useful for any essential oil user, with the possible exception of the essential oil blends chapter. The single essential oil section was even better than I expected. It covers the primary uses and how to apply it in a quick way with a T for Topical, A for Aromatic and and I for Internal. You also get the Chemical Constituents, Properties, Historical Uses, French Medical Uses, Other Possible Uses, Body System(s) Affected, Aromatic Influence, Oral Use as a Dietary Supplement, Safety Data, Blend Classification, as well as Odor. This all comes with a great index and a color coded tab for the section on each page. This book covers so much in an easy to read fashion. Totally Recommended.

Sometimes older version are better
Decided to review my old purchases so this is several years later. This book came in handy and it's nice because it references names of products that can't be named anymore due to regulations. That said, if you are new to oils you will be used to the new way of referencing and the newer versions will also have more of the products and oils listed to help you.

Just getting into essential oils
This IS a guide for doTerra oils, which is fine by me because I have a friend selling them. I wanted my own guide to be able to look up ailments and oils at home, and this looks like it will be perfect It has some references in the front on the science of EOs and charts on reflex points. The single oils are arranged alphabetically and there is a chart in the back on the safety of each oil and application method for children, adults, and pregnancy.It arrived much faster than I anticipated (within 5 days on a holiday weekend). It has been pouring down rain here though, and my mailman left it on the doorstep so the edges of my pages got wrinkled. I would recommend the seller wrap in plastic before packaging to prevent weather related shipping damages. Otherwise the book is in brand new condition and came with a handy reference card too.

Modern Essentials 5th Edition guide to therapeutic uses of essential oils.
This book is an indispensable resource for doTERRA Essential Oils. I am just getting into using doTERRA oils and started with almost no information and I have consulted this book at least once every day since I got it a couple weeks ago! I showed my girlfriend who is interested in essential oils as well and she bought the book after thumbing through it with me. She couldn't believe all the information packed in it. It gives you a scientific basis for how the oils work and what body parts each oils effect and can heal. It lists single oils and blends and their possible uses and whether they can be diffused for inhalation, topically applied, or ingested. And that's just a small portion of information contained. I find this book absolutely necessary for my learning and growth!

Used for basic oil use
This book is a very good book for the DoTera oils. It tells the properties and basic uses. It is easy to use once you study it or are shown because it is divided into oils, blends and conditions. So you can use it many ways, I use this book a lot when working with the DoTerra oils to figure out what oil would help with a condition. It is how ever not a book used often in my aroma class for homework, It is not detailed enough for school and there are many other books out there written for the student. So my conclusion is this is a great book for the every day person looking for suggestions on what oils to use, and basic understanding. It is a good starting point.
