As increasing numbers of people turn to alternative healing practices,
this classic text on the science and art of homeopathic medicine remains
ever relevant. Written at the turn of the twentieth century by a
distinguished physician, its concepts of health and healing are still
ahead of our time. Dr. Kent summarizes, interprets, and systematizes the
traditions of homeopathy, offering insights into the essential
characteristics of the healing process: how to take a case history, how
to study the case, how to establish the hierarchy of symptoms in
determining the appropriate remedy--and above all, how to decide what to
do after the first prescription, how to interpret the many reactions to
therapy, and how to achieve a scientific understanding of a cure. This
informative volume is must reading for any student or practitioner of
homeopathy as well as any individual seriously interested in
understanding the fundamental laws of health and healing.
