Format:Paperback
This is a very comprehensive book providing all the basic information necessary for a profound knowledge ABOUT homeopathy. The first part concentrates on understanding homeopathy: basic principles, history of homeopathy, scientific verification of homeopathic medicine (citing many double-blind laboratory and clinical studies). The second part discusses the applicability of this medicine to various health problems. This part encompasses a broad range and also opens many perspectives for the future. The third part of the book provides valuable references including resources for further research.

The best introduction to homeopathic medicine on the market.
19 Oct 2000
Format:Paperback
Dana Ullman, one of the leading advocates of homeopathic medicine, has produced a comprehensive, lucid introduction to this branch of complementary medicine, covering the history and the philosophy of homeopathy as well as the (surprisingly strong) scientific evidence supporting its effectiveness for a variety of conditions. A detailed discussion of the effectiveness and the limits of homeopathy in the treatment of infectious disease, allergies, chronic diseases, psychological conditions and dentistry, as well as its applications in pregnancy and labour, women's health, pediatrics and sports medicine follows.
The final part of the book gives concrete advice on how to learn more about homeopathy, in particular about homeopathic self-treatment, and on how to go about finding a homeopathic practitioner. To avoid misunderstanding, this is not a self-care book. Detailed remedy pictures and usage instructions are beyond the scope of this book. If that is what you are looking for, I would recommend "The Consumer's Guide to Homeopathy" by the same author, which gives a condensed version of the historical and philosophical background of homeopathy as a prelude to a detailed discussion of the self-treatment of acute conditions.
A list of homeopathic manifacturers, organizations and schools and a bibliography complete this work.

Always a good idea to purchase text books from Amazon rather than the campus book store! All the used books I have purchased on line, have always been in great condition.
