A Synoptic Key of the Materia Medica

Description

A short repertory plus a synopsis of 323 remedies. Dr. P. Sankaran describes Dr. Boger as a man of few words, describing in one line or even one word what Kent describes in a paragraph. In that style, each remedy description is succinct, giving the region of affinity of the remedy, its modalities and its specific symptoms, with it all graded in CAPITALS, bold or plain type.

Correct prescribing is the art of carefully fitting pathogenetic to clinical symptoms, and as such at present requires a special aptness in grasping the essential points of symptom images, great drudgery, mastering a working knowledge of our large Materia Medica or a most skillful use of many books of reference.
It is the aim of this book to simplify and introduce method into this work, so that the truly homoeopathic curative remedy may be worked out with greater ease and certainty. For this purpose a combination of the analytic and synoptic methods has been thought best.
