Product Description
Product Description
Homoeopathy is a natural, safe, inexpensive and highly effective complement and alternative to conventional medicine. By triggering the body's own self-healing abilities, homoeopathic remedies effectively treat everyday ailments, including acute and chronic symptoms of mind and body. EVERYBODY'S GUIDE TO HOMEOPATHIC MEDICINES provides clear and comprehensive information on homoeopathic remedies for quick relief from colds, headaches, allergies, children's illnesses, PMS and many other common conditions. Written by a medical doctor and a well-known homoeopath, who has written several books on the subject, this revised and expanded edition is a good introduction to the theory and practice of homoeopathy. Intended for the lay reader, the bulk of the book details self-treatment options for common ailments. The authors take great care advising patients when professional medical intervention is warranted. A must for most housholds..
From the Author
The top 3 books in your homeopathy list are not great books.
Your list of the top 3 books in homeopathy is somewhat weak. The first book by Weiner was originally written in 1979 (and never updated). It contains lots of errors of fact (eeeks). Besides writing books, my company is the largest seller of homeopathic books, and we don't even sell Weiner's book. EVERYBODY'S GUIDE TO HOMEOPATHIC MEDICINES is, by far, the leading guidebook in the field. We have revised it twice since it was first published in 1984 (most recently in 1997!). This book also informs readers when their condition is serious enough to warrant medical attention (that's important!). One of my other books, THE CONSUMER'S GUIDE TO HOMEOPATHY, is also a leading book (it's a popular bookclub selection). It includes a lot of up-to-date information on scientific studies in homeopathy (described in a user-friendly manner), and it informs readers about the potential and the limitations of this natural medicine. Besides your relatively minor error in the home! opathy section, you folks do great work.

I use this book all the time, because it is arranged by ailment and easy to access. There are also more in depth sections on the most common remedies. If I could just have one homeopathic book, this would be it.

Good layman's reference
24 Nov 1999
Format:Paperback
We've only had this book for a few months and it's dog-eared already. Granted, since then, we've been overseas and back so we're a little predisposed to being stressed out and sick. Disclaimers aside, it's been a fairly comprehensive guide to combating colds and other problems -- even a first-degree burn. It has a very helpful section on casetaking and is well-organized. It's not exhaustive, but it serves its purpose well -- as a guide to situations which arise most often in the home. It tells you when to seek outside help and what to do yourself. It also gives suggestions to go along with the remedies (the use of ice, heat; when to make rest a priority) and explanations (what's the definition of a croupy cough). I'd say if you had to choose only two books on homeopathy for your library I'd recommend this and the Materia Medica.

This book works!
6 Nov 2003
Format:Paperback
This was the second book on homeopathy that I bought, and it quickly became the only book I use. I like its clear explanations, organization, and use of modalities in the descriptions. It's easy for me to ask myself questions and compare my responses with the descritptions in the book. It's been my guide for over 20 years, and during that time I haven't taken a drug for any reason!
