A critical evaluation of the discipline, it reviews the known facts and defines the knowledge gaps, offering a reliable and much-needed critique of the uses of traditional homoeopathic remedies.

David S. Riley’s interest in the history, methodology and results of homeopathic drug provings began with his exposure to homeopathy in 1988 and his later study at the Hahnemann College of Homeopathy in Albany, California. The homeopathic drug provings published here are the result of his investigation of the research methods associated with homeopathic drug provings and contemporary research methodology. Dr. Riley has developed explicit and transparent research tools for (1) symptom selection criteria, (2) electronic data collection, and (3) blinding to reduce bias. These homeopathic drugs provings follow good clinical practice research guidelines (GCP) and incorporate the guidelines suggested by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann more than 200 years ago

This volume includes the full Health Technology Assessment (HTA) report on effectiveness, appropriateness, safety and costs of homoeopathy in health care. The report was commissioned by the Swiss health authorities to inform decision-making on the further inclusion of homoeopathy in the list of services covered by statutory health insurance. Other studies carried out as part of the Swiss Complementary Medicine Evaluation Programme (PEK) caused a massive stir due to their schematic and exclusively quantitative (negative-)outcomes for homoeopathy. The present report, in contrast, offers a differentiated evaluation of the practice of homoeopathy in health care. It confirms homoeopathy as a valuable addition to the conventional medical landscape – a status it has been holding for a long time in practical health care.

The Complete Guide to Homeopathy reveals the key principles of homeopathy, including the way we are categorized into "constitutional" types according to our physical and emotional characteristics. Self-assessment Questionnaire: A specially designed questionnaire, based on what a homeopath might ask during a first office visit, provides unique insight into the link between health and temperament and helps determine which constitutional type you most closely match. Index of Remedies: A photographic index of 150 remedies illustrates plant, mineral, and animal sources, ranging from common foods such as honey to toxic substances such as snake venom. A profile of each remedy gives its historical background, medicinal uses, and its corresponding constitutional type. Treating Common Ailments: Easy-to-use ailment charts show which remedies to take for everyday health problems such as insomnia, anxiety, eczema, and toothaches. Additional self-help treatments are recommended, and there is a quick-reference guide to homeopathic first aid.
