Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Although it's unlikely that this book will persuade many parents to try homeopathic remedies, it should be useful for those already convinced of the merits of this alternative method of medical care. Ullman, who has written two other books about homeopathic remedies ( Discovering Homeopathy , North Atlantic Bks., 1991. rev. ed.; Homeopathy: Medicine for the 21st Century , LJ 2/1/88), explains the system's principles, tells how to assess a child's symptoms, and lists some 78 childhood disorders along with their homeopathic remedies and a list of homeopathic manufacturers. This clearly written and well-organized work is recommended for libraries that collect in alternative medicine.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for every parent !, May 26, 2001

By	Heidi V. Delfino (Weston, Fl USA) - See all my reviews

In a simple way it tells you all the caracteristics of your child and his needs. The book is divided in specific ailments, like fevers, bruises, ear infections (the real reason why I bought it), diaper rashes, etc. and gives you all the homeopathic medicine that would suit your child depending on his behaviour. Then there are all the medicines listed in alfabethical order where it explains what they are and they are for. An A++++ for Dana Ullmann . I'm looking forward to purchasing the book for the whole family ! Thanks !!! P.S.: By the way my Daughter has improved so much, she is almost a new child , no more whinning and crying. Ear infections FREE !!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best for selecting remedies for children, August 20, 1998

By A Customer

This is the best book I have been able to find for selecting remedies for children. It seems to cover most of the typical childhood illnesses and I have always been able to select an appropriate remedy from the descriptions it gives.
