More specialised than Cunningham’s book, this volume offers a lot of practical advise for making and using incense. Neal covers a range of issues from a brief history, and the forms that incense can come in, through to how to make your own natural incense, avoiding the chemicals which can be found in most ready-to-use incense available on the market today. This book also includes troubleshooting charts, a number of appendicies, a glossary and a short bibliography.
