The Homeopathic Treatment of Children is 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. Not only does Paul Herscu draw from various sources (repertories and materia medica), he also adds indispensable original information from his successful practice.
Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: A must have for those that do homeopathy... Comment: 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! Customer Rating: Summary: Very good book Comment: This is an excellent book, and a must for any homeopath and student (although any homeopath should remain an eternal student!) The information is very good, and I like that in addition to the mental symptoms, Paul also provides a good amount of physical symptoms. Many modern books focus solely on the mental symptoms, and we should remember that homeopathy is not psychotherapy. The personality profiles are incredibly helpful, but they have to be balanced by the physical and general symptoms. A word of caution to a student or parent: it is very common occurrence to feel that every remedy you read about fits one's case. Don't be fooled. One needs to be very objective to find the real simillimum. So please don't run out and buy every remedy that you think fits the case, because you may end up taking every one listed in this book. But the information is excellent. Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent resource! Comment: This book is an excellent resource for children! I find it very helpful and descriptive....worth it! Customer Rating: Summary: help for diagnosis at home Comment: I guess if you want to get better at diagnosing your children's constitution you have to become a homepath. And if they get really sick it is better to seek out professional homeopaths or pediatricians. However, this book is very helpful if you are interested in keeping your kids in a healthy balance naturally. So far it is working for my kids. Customer Rating: Summary: Required Reading for practicing homeopathic physicians Comment: 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.
