Homoeopathic Books

Doctor Dorothy Shepherd: 'Homeopathy in Epidemic Diseases' - she explains how effective and simple to use homeopathy is for contagious diseases.It's written in a very readable style with lots of anecdotes and humour.

THE ORGANON - SIXTH EDITION+ CHRONIC DISEASESboth by Samual Hahnemann
These two books are absolutely essential readingfor those studying homeopathy.
Homeopathy in Accidents and Ailments by Dr Gibson a small, cheap and easy to use starter

A Materia Medica by eitherPhatak or BoerickeMore concise than Vermeulen or Murphy.(my preference is for Boericke, which also has a small repertory at the end)

Impossible Cure Amy Lansky PhdExcellent explanation of homeopathy alsohow her autistic son was cured

Any Modern and complete up to date repertory. This is such an individual choice I really recommend going to a homeopathic bookshop or looking at friends' repertories before deciding. Don't waste money on old out of date repertories (e.g. Kent's) unless you like that sort of thing

Select your Remedy by Bishamber DasThe book I turned to when learning homeopathy andI had to find a remedy in the middle of the night. More comprehensive than most Home user books.

Lilienthal's Homeopathic Therapeuticsa more comprehensive version of'Select your Remedy'

Phatak's Materia Medicaprobably the clearest and easiest to use'proper' materia medica

Materia Medicas by Vermeulen (Concordant or Prisma)or Murphy (Lotus)Excellent books.
