The philosophy and practical applications of homeopathy described in this book offer the world an alternative or conjunctive path to the use of vaccination for the treatment and prevention of infectious contagious diseases. Moreover, this book is full of useful information and advocating for the effective treatment of infectious contagious disease with homeopathy. Considering the state of affairs in world health, where more than half of the world lives in poverty, without clean water, and adequate food supplies, the annihilation of infectious contagious disease with any healing modality is very difficult. Homeopathy offers an inexpensive and effective treatment plan which can more radically improve the status of health on this planet for its human inhabitants than any other system of medicine has so far.Not only is the information herein useful for the treatment of infectious contagious diseases but it also lays a foundation for deeper study into chronic disease. The philosophical chapters introduces the basic tenants of homeopathy, and overview of the immune system, and discusses vaccine injury in the immune system in the light of homeopathic philosophy. The clinical chapters cover: childhood eruptive disease such as chickenpox, measles, and scarlet fever: diseases that have a historical significance and/or raise concerns due to biological warfare, smallpox, anthrax, and plague: more common household illness of Haemophilus influenza, otitis media, influenza, mononucleosis, and pneumonia: sexually transmitted diseases of herpes, genital warts, gonorrhea, syphilis, AIDS and hepatitis, accompanied with an in depth look at the expression of human psychology associated with these diseases: five of the most common tropical diseases, yellow fever, typhoid, dengue fever, cholera and malaria providing sufficient information for prevention and treatment:. The remaining chapters cover homeopathic prevention and treatment for rabies, tetanus, diphtheria, mumps, and tuberculosis.

This therapeutic manual is a wonderful addition to any homeopaths library. The essays of Dr. Bernoville's original work on the liver and biliary function comes with commentary and additions Kate Birch. Dr. Bernville lays out a precise schematic of hepatic function, potency use, drainage routes and more. Kate takes this original work one step further by expounding on the passage of energy through the auxiliary systems of the body, giving more homeopathic remedy examples, and the implications towards corresponding mental and emotional states of the individual. This work serves to ground homeopathic prescriptions of the mind and emotions with the pathology in the body.

Homeopathic Therapeutics of the Diseases of the Liver and Biliary Ducts: The Amazing Liver: Interfacing Nature with Spirit

This book may be the best medical investment you make for your family. Self-reliance in home prescribing is the goal of this acute care manual. This pictorial guide to homeopathic care is the first of its kind. While homeopathy has been around for over 200 years and there are many other first aid manuals and field guides available, this book takes the work to a new level. The most complicated task for the lay person in homeopathy is how to find a remedy for specific therapeutic indications in a short and reliable way. Here the content is laid out in three simple sections:1.Philosophy2.Six therapeutic modules3.Materia Medica (MM)The color-coded references in the therapeutic modules and associated remedies help the reader navigate quickly and efficiently between content towards the desired goal of finding a remedy. The artfully designed layout of the Materia Medica pages capture the basics of confirmed clinical symptoms, description of the remedies and their therapeutic indications. Each therapeutic module gives a holistic overview of the conditions a hand and extensive differentials between the possible applicable remedies. Here the text is designed to hold the readers hand as they sit by the bed side of their sick children, helping them to recover their health in a fast and gentle way. The success of years of clinical practice, attending to those late night calls of infants with high fevers, whole families stricken with the flu, and/or mental and emotional crises, have served to be the foundation upon which this book is crafted. The text, which has been shaped from the simple of language of conversations with mothers, not only explains how homeopathy works and what to expect on the way to cure, but exposes the depth of possibilities of interconnection between this system of healing for the individual and our relationship to the world we live, and through insight into the curative potential of the natural substances found on this planet. Enjoy!
