Lila Devi (lee-lah day-vee) has authored 4 books spanning 4 different genres: The Essential Flower Essence Handbook (a holistic classic, published in 1996) and Flower Essences for Animals (a guide to help our beloved pets know the highest quality of life through natural pet care)—both in several languages and the texts for the SiNE Home Study Courses; and Bradley Banana and The Jolly Good Pirate, the first in a series of 20 children’s picture books, also in several languages, each personifying the uplifting quality of a flower essence as a little girl or boy.

Her latest book (June, 2015) is a spiritual memoir entitled From Bagels to Curry: A Jewish Yogi’s Account of the Passing of a Parent, with a universal message about life, death, family, and triumph as told by a loving but headstrong daughter.

Lila is the founder of Spirit-in-Nature Essences, the oldest flower essence line globally outside the U.K. since 1977. An engaging seminar leader with nearly 40 years’ experience, she lectures nationally and abroad. She graduated with honors from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and psychology and a secondary teaching certificate, and is considered one of the foremost flower essence developers in the world today. Drawing on her skills as a writer of songs, poetry, and plays and on her talent as a musician—vocalist, guitarist, and composer—her programs present a refreshing approach to Nature and an awareness of human nature.

Lila lives within view of the Umbrian sunsets outside Assisi, Italy, and regularly visits California.

I rather enjoyed this book. It is a good starting place for those interested in working with flower essences. I would have liked a bit more information regarding the history of usage of each plant, but this book already includes so many sections of varying info that I am sure it would have made it a weighty tome to include more. As stated above, this is a good introductory book to flower essences and specific uses of the more common ones.
