For the first time ever, glossaries of comprehensive symptoms and homeopathic remedies collected in one volume.
This definitive gude is raelly two books in one: an introduction to the study and practice of homeopathy and a detailed reference book of symptoms and remedies. Vinton McCabe, a longtime educator of homeopathy practicioners and laypersons, begins with a brief history of the art and discusses the underlying philosophy of homeopathy as contrasted with conventional medicine.
The bulk of the book is made up of well-organized, accessible sections covering such topics as symptoms for use in diagnosis, corrective measures for emergencies andother easily diagnosed complaints, and a detailed listing of sixty homeopathic remedies and their uses. Practical Homeopathy will appeal to newcomers to homeopathy as well as to enthusiasts.

Vinton McCabe has served as the president of the Connecticut Homeopathic Association for the past two decades. He is the author of several study guides, as well as Practical Homeopathy. McCabe is on the faculty of the Open Center of Manhattan, the Wainwright House of Rye, New York, and the Hudson Valley School of Classical Homeopathy for which he also servces on the board. He lives in Stamford, Connecticut.
The growth of public interest in homeopathy has inspired books intended to help the lay practitioner, such as the mother who wants to treat her child's mild cough at home. These books have been long on remedies but short on philosophy. Following up on his previous book, Homeopathy, Healing, and You (which presented the core philosophy and a handful of key remedies), McCabe's newest work again joins philosophy and pharmacy in a practical way. McCabe redefines the role of physicians, the nature of disease, and the use of medicine; articulates a thorough method of case-taking; and presents remedies three times (according to symptoms that indicate them, according to emergency situations, and separately as remedy "pictures"). As president of the Connecticut Homeopathic Association and a member of the faculty and board of the Hudson Valley School of Classical Homeopathy, McCabe brings two decades of training to this excellent, essential text. Highly recommended for all libraries.
