5.0 out of 5 stars great book!, June 18, 2000

By A Customer

If you are interested in learning about homeopathy, this is a must-have book. The format of the book is excellent, with the layout of a reference book, but balanced with illustrations to help further educate the reader. It contains lots of interesting facts, such as the history and use of homeopathy, and even a section on what to expect when visiting a practitioner. I like how everything is written in plain english; one doesn't need to have a medical degree to learn from the text.

3.0 out of 5 stars COFFEE table book, October 12, 2006

By	Harmony "Harmony" (Canada) - See all my reviews

Nice pictures and gives a very general view of remedies and some on constitutions, but not a book to learn about the use of remedies.

Better with some book for Homeopathic first aid where it is way more useful and practical.

3.0 out of 5 stars This book has a lot of not-quite-right information, March 30, 2006

By	Jessica L. Lawrence (North Carolina) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is good as a general information reference, but sometimes the information given is not completely accurate. I understand that in such an unusual subject, there will be debate as to which set of information is accurate, but a few things are simply wrong. I don't feel it necessary to point out what I find is wrong; anyone who understands homeopathy or medicinal plants will spot them, and beginners need not worry about these sorts of errors, as they will only be seeking a general idea of the subject. Please, always back up information with other books of similar subjects, don't just take any one book's word for being correct.
