Homoeopathy is a science which is based on totality of symptoms for bringing about a complete cure. But often, the lack of time/scarcity of symptoms may not allow the liberty to individualize, hence the need for first-hand specifics is required. Written by an experienced practitioner of good repute, the book extensively provides for the remedies with a wide range of medical emergencies that come across in day to day lives, with recommendations from stalwarts. A Materia Medica of the red line symptoms has also been included in the text with useful quotes on prescribing symptoms, relations between remedies and repetition.

Dr K.D. Kanodia is BA (Hons), MDSH, ND, DI (Homoeopathy, London) and MRSH (London). He is a life member with DHNA, New Delhi and a member of the International Homoeopathic League, Geneva. He has been the recipient of "Appreciation Award in Homoeopathy" from the Board of Homoeopathic System of Medicine, Delhi. Apart from this, he has also received appreciation from former Chief Minister of Jammu & Kashmir. He has been serving homoeopathy through charitable dispensaries and renowned hospitals and is the author of about two dozen books on homoeopathy, social and religious aspects. His other works are 'The Homoeopathic Physician's Quick Prescriber, 'Some Essential References in Repertory', 'A Study Supplements to Kent's Lectures on Materia Medica', 'The Concept of Miasms', 'A Table Talk or Homoeopathy' and 'A Concise Materia Medica of Mental Symptoms in Homoeopathy'.

The volume of work in homoeopathy since its discovery by Dr. Hahnemann has increased enormously. A by Dr. T.F. Allen constitutes of nine thousand pages in ten volumes. Thereafter there is a chain of big and small volumes which have their own importance. Those who have read Dr. Nash and Dr. H.C. Allen can realise how they have putocean of knowledge in small pages.

Now that we have more than six hundred books in homoeopathy in the market, why a new book at all becomes necessary? This is what I thought when compiling my first book 'Wonders of a Single Dose in Homoeopathy.

As Dr. J.H. Clarke has opined, it is a continuous work of arrangements of the scattered things in the realm of homoeopathy to make available to the beginner and a busy physician that which is beyond their reach generally. The vast treasure still lies scattered in one or the other volume. The precious achievements in the science still remain to be highlighted to enable the people to make use of them after getting them at a glance.

All of us know that the network of symptoms is so very complicated when we find in our compilations 3370 symptoms for Thuja, 3920 for Phosphorus, 1323 for Pulsatilla, 1680 for Stramonium, 1040 for Sulphur and so on.

The common reader is baffled and lost in the lyberinth when he is out to search for a similium in the vast ocean of the symptoms.

Here our great masters have guided us to stear through this crisis.

It is the general tendency of mankind to drift towards easy solution and in the field of homoeopathy also this holds true. People are inclined to have specifics at their tips to avoid strain and stress. By this pursuit the purpose and principles of homoeopathy are likely to be lost.

This requires a clear understanding. We must know the man and also the drug equally, Study and patience to othe cide, and the result is sure and quick.

In our every day life, we identify a man by his name, parentage, place, features and identifying marks. We are satisfied about whom we are searching.

Like-wise, we have to identify a man with regard to his sickness. Man is not an animal being. If we just simply categorise him and his ailment, we cannot reach our destina- tion. If we observe, we find each man is different from the other. His thumb impressions, features, likings, emotions, aversions, modalities, vitality, are not identical and similar to the other man. We can individualise him fully and perfectly and here is our first step to success.

A little effort shall make our study interesting. We have to see the human body in its totality. In animal being-the physical working predominates; whereas in human body, mind and sensory nerves are the governing features.

Memory, sensations, urges, excitements, irritations, fear, anxiety, joy, sadness, indifference are all exhibited clearly and intensely in human life. Burning pains, stitching and stinging pains, neuralgic pains, rheumatic pains find their expression here in actual forms.

We can differentiate when studying stools: which may be green, slimy, watery, profuse, or scanty, which may be hard, greasy or tend to recede back, there may be frequent ineffec- tual urge or no urge to stool at all; one may feel weak with diarrhoea while the other has no weakness with the profuse and frequent stools.
