It sheds light on the importance of repertories in the life of a students and practitioners• The book covers various topics essential to deal with the proper understanding of repertories and to find a suitable rubric for the case.• Several case illustrations have also been given for better understandingThe book is divided into 2 parts-1st part lays down all the general information on symptomatology starting from the totality of symptoms prescribing symptoms, mental symptoms, general and particular symptoms, common and uncommon symptoms, concomitant symptoms, eliminating symptoms, record keeping and usefulness of record keeping and many other different topics.2nd part starts the discussion on the repertories such as the meaning of repertory, history of repertory, advantages of repertories, types of repertories, discussion of repertories by stalwarts of BBCR, Kent’s Repertory, Synthetic repertory, card repertory, different philosophies, different methods of repertorisation, working out of a case, limitations of repertory and other topics as well. In preparing this book the aim has been to satisfy the needs of the students, teachers and examiners of the Homeopathic Medical Colleges and the practitioners as well. When you have prescribed one, two, three remedies, especially in acute cases, but of course also in chronic cases, without results, the author begs to stops continuing it. This is the moment to give placebo, which the prescriber should have done at the beginning to good effect. Applying this rule is much more difficult than just ‘doing something’ by giving a badly chosen remedy of which you are not sure and which does not correspond to the essential symptoms of the case, either because the remedy is not known, or because the patient's essential symptoms are not known. It is advised to patiently await the development of symptoms.The book points out the message of Dr J.T. Kent rightly where he states, ‘Every time you study a case to find the constitutional remedy, don't simply limit yourself to finding the simillimum (the remedy with the most qualitative and quantitative similarity), but like William Tell, who was commanded to shoot an arrow into an apple resting on his son's head, and selected two arrows instead of one (the second for the man who had given him the order, if he missed the mark and hit his son), always have a second remedy up your sleeve, a remedy as much as possible similar to the first; in this way you will not be at a loss of your second prescription.’
