Here you see the result of a great and thorough work: an important book in homeopathy’s growth to maturity.

Margriet Plouvier has created an extremely workable overview of the functioning of different potencies by systematically and logically arranging her observations of the therapeutic effect after prescriptions. This is a great support when we try to choose the appropriate potency for a case.There are many theories about the use of the best potency, but until now it is more tradition and conviction that are determinative instead of systematic research. Being the pharmacist of a homeopathic pharmacy, I see many recipes every day; so I have an overview of many prescriptions. I also have knowledge of clinical and fundamental research in homeopathy: this research doesn’t show any useful difference of result between D, C, K, or LM potencies.Very little study has been done into the exact differences in functioning between the several potency-systems. It is impossible to have a preference based on clinical and fundamental research. Nevertheless I notice that doctors and therapist have their strong personal preferences. This book shows the corresponding effect of potencies from different potency- systems.

The question is: what is most important? Is the difference in effect of the several potencies secondary to the choice of the simillimum in the potency appropriate to the case?

A World Map of Homeopathic Groups and Families aims to make homeopathic practice manageable again. Unlike the early days of homeopathy and particularly in the last 20 years, homeopathic students and practitioners now have access to a bewildering amount of information - new provings, books, systems and computer programmes all add to an already extensive body of knowledge. But how does the practitioner incorporate all this new data into their work? This book aims to answer this question by guiding us to take a step back from a case for a more 'big picture' view before examining the smaller details. It introduces the concepts of 2D / 3D groups and the Vital Approach Map of Homeopathic Families which Anne likens to a treasure map for the similimum. Practitioners will learn how to identify clear pointers for the bigger groups and families, what other key information to look for in a case, how to connect the dots and recognise patterns leading to more efficient prescribing and improved outcomes. Anne's straightforward approaches are beautifully presented in this book. Through them we gain not only a broader perspective but also deeper understanding that allows our homeopathic practice to be taken to a whole new level.

A classic by Boger, in which he continues the work of Boenninghausen. This compact book contains both a comprehensive materia medica and a complete repertory, all in less than 600 pages. Boger's aim was to restrict the remedy pictures to the essential, at the same time forming a synopsis between materia medica and repertory. The book covers a total of 323 remedies with their characteristic symptoms and chief effects. The entry for each remedy starts with the organotrophic relationships and modalities, followed by a selection of the most important symptoms.

The publisher:
The Synoptic key of Materia Medica is indeed the key that a student or a practioner needs to unlock the right remedy in each case.
In our " Rearranged & Augemented" edition you will find:
- A snap shot description of more than 400 drugs.
- A detailed and exhaustive repertory including sections on Time Modalities, General Modalities and Generalities.
-Index of remedies with latest accepted abbreviations.
If correct prescription be an art, the book will most definitely prove to be the Artist's favorite tools.


"The Synopsis is intended to make clear the general expression or genius of each remedy..."
C.M. Boger

Excerpt from Preface: In the recent year, a lot of work has been done in the field of Homeopathic Provings, and this is a small attempt at proving hitherto scantily proved and unknown drugs. We have tried to be as scientific as possible and have closely adhered to the protocol given in -
British Homeopathic Journal - Peter Fisher
Central Council of Research in Homeopathy - Dr. D. P. Rastogi
Dynamis School of Provings - Jeremy Sherr

The idea occurred to  me during my seminar in Vienna in 1995,when Dr. Walter Gluck of Soos, Austria, informed me about the international competition of Drug Proving. The proving was started in April 1996 and continued until August 1998.

Excerpt from Introduction: For more than thirty years I have been practicing homoeopathy and lecturing on the subject. Recently I have felt I should put down my thoughts in book form and thus have a chance to share my experience with others, who then could also profit from the homeopathic healing method.
I was trained in allopathic medicine in India, at the prestigious Madras Medical College and graduated in 1966. Then I went to England and was trained in homeopathy, under the particular tutelage of Dr. Margery G. Blackie, at the Royal London Homoeopathic Hospital, and got my M.F.Hom. in 1968. Since then I have been teaching and conducting postgraduate courses in India, East Asia, Western Europe, and North America, and have been offering consultations to patients all over the world.
What lead me to focus on cancer was a series of failures in cancer cases in my earlier days, particularly the loss of my sister in 1974 and my elder brother in 1984, both of whom were homeopathic doctors. From that time on I have been trying out different combinations, potencies, and dosages of remedies in the treatment of this disease.
Beginning in the late 1980s, I began to observe favorable responses and over the next few years embarked on and experimented with a new technique of prescribing. This methodology, which I have named my “Plussing Method”, stabilized around 1993. The good results of the seven years or so of  working very intensely with this method, especially in comparison with my work in cancer of the previous years, gave me a sense of happiness and enthusiasm that prompted me to write a book.

Deborah Collins’ highly recommended manual fills a gap. Based on and referring to Jan Scholten’s famous Plant theory, which has been expanding the world of plant remedies in homeopathy, this manual explains his method and opens doors to those who have hitherto been reluctant to try it. It provides encouragement for those who have started but become stuck, and gives further case examples for those who have already gained some experience in Scholten‘s work. Well-known homeopaths describe their experiences in practice, encouraging readers to overcome the inevitable difficulties inherent in any new system. Jan Scholten himself gives many tips for understanding the patient and applying the theory. Two extensive interviews with him provide background information into his way of thinking. Numerous charts illustrate the code and theory, providing an overview of the placement of the plant families in their relationship to the code. And finally, over fifty cases from a large variety of homeopaths demonstrate the efficacy of the method.

A quarter of a century in use is a very fair test for any medical work, and this A Dictionary of Practical Materia Medica has stood so well that publishers have decided to issue it in a form and at a price which should put it within reach of all practitioners and students of Homeopathy.
Pulling together of Allen’s Encyclopedia, Hering’s Guiding Symptoms, and Hale’s Remedies
The clinical uses of the remdies are discussed, cases are given as examples of use, and then the remedy symptoms are listed using the Hahnemann schema
If one needed just a single materia medica, this set might serve the purpose.

2586 pages, hardcover, 3 volume set

The four volumes contain records of all provings done to date. Hughes believed that Allen’s Encyclopedia had several faults, among them poor translations of the provings and admitting all published provings without checking their veracity. This latter issue was quite touchy since several years earlier a German physician, C.W. Finckel, had published (to enhance his reputation) several provings that were pure inventions. He had published under several pseudonyms as well and his work was often quoted by opponents of the homeopathic system.
This work was assembled by a committee including Drysdale, Dudgeon and Pope in the UK, and Conrad Wesselhoeft, E.A Farrington, and H. R. Arndt in the USA.
As usual, with the work of Hughes, the scholarship is outstanding. If you have questions about symptoms in Allen’s 10 volumes, a check of these four volume might resolve doubts.
