5.0 out of 5 stars Required Reading for practicing homeopathic physicians, April 28, 2000
This review is from: The Homeopathic Treatment of Children: Pediatric Constitutional Types (Paperback)
I'm a naturopathic medical student, studying homeopathy, and this book was indispensible at giving both a clear overall impression of the various major constitutional types, and also a detailed outline for reference at the end of each chapter. I know I will be using this book often in my practice. Not only does he draw from various sources (repertories and materia medica) but also adds indisoensable original information from his successful practice.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for those that do homeopathy..., April 26, 2008
By 
This review is from: The Homeopathic Treatment of Children: Pediatric Constitutional Types (Paperback)
I have a few materia medicas that cover the remedies, but none do it as in depth as Herscu does. Granted there are only around 8 remedies covered, but he says that 80% of kids can be effectively treated with them. And because he only covers a few remedies, you really begin to really understand them. Because he uses cases examples to illustrate his points, the book is a hard one to put down for the most part. Great book!
