The second edition of this book is virtually a new book. It is the only comprehensive text on the safety of essential oils, the first review of essential oil/drug interactions, and it provides detailed essential oil constituent data not found in any other text. Much of the existing text has been re-written, and 80% of the text is completely new. There are 400 comprehensive essential oil profiles and almost 4000 references. There are new chapters on the respiratory system, the cardiovascular system, the urinary system, the digestive system and the nervous system. For each essential oil there is a full breakdown of constituents, and a clear categorization of hazards and risks, with recommended maximum doses and concentrations. There are also 206 Constituent Profiles. There is considerable discussion of carcinogens, the human relevance of some of the animal data, the validity of treating an essential oil as if it was a single chemical, and the arbitrary nature of uncertainty factors. There is a critique of current regulations.

Depuis toujours, psychiatrie et droit, comme santé et justice sont à la recherche d'un difficile équilibre pour mieux soigner et protéger toute personne souffrant de troubles mentaux. Aussi, avec la naissance de la clinique dans le sillage du Traité médico-philosophique sur l'aliénation mentale de Pinel, les aliénistes ont accordé une place centrale à la clinique médicolégale pour reconnaître le malade au-delà du trouble du comportement, et lui apporter les soins indispensables. Cet ouvrage offre une place particulière à la protection de la personne malade et aux soins sans consentement prévus par la loi du 5 juillet 2011 et réformée en 2013. Dans une première partie de psychiatrie légale, après avoir traité de l'organisation des soins en psychiatrie et de la législation hospitalière, il aborde la responsabilité médicale, le droit des patients, la rédaction des certificats et les différentes formes d'expertise en psychiatrie au niveau pratique. En outre, depuis les années 1980, la pratique des équipes de psychiatrie s'intéresse particulièrement à la clinique du passage à l'acte et à la victimologie. Ainsi, la seconde partie, consacrée à la criminologie clinique, s'applique à définir les notions essentielles du droit pénal, puis les aspects cliniques : agression, dangerosité, violences, homicides, victimologie. Destiné aux psychiatres et aux psychologues, cet ouvrage ne se cantonne pas aux cliniciens ou aux experts et peut être utile à tous les professionnels confrontés à la maltraitance, aux violences conjugales et familiales ou encore aux agressions sexuelles.
