The book is the compilation of the transcriptions of Dr. Kent’s lectures at the Post Graduate School of Homeopaths in Philadelphia.
Dr. Kent believed in Dr. Hahnemnn’s view of the patient’s own language being the best expression of his disease.
Therefore he held that Homeopathic materia medica must be reduced from technicalities to simple speech of the patient.
It must be understood by the reader that this not a primary materia medica and therefore not all remedies have found place in it. However, the leading and fully proven medicines (217 in number) which have strong characteristics have been thoroughly presented for the purpose of showing the reader the evolution of homeopathic materia medica and upskilling a homeopathy student in using it.
The book finds its source in Hahnemann’s Materia Medica Pura, Hering’s Guiding Symptoms and the Encyclopedia of Pure Materia Medica.
Witness the distinctive picture of homeopathic remedies and grasp their essence through the characteristic symptoms. The use of simple language and expression of the symptoms linked with each other as if in a thread and the story-like presentation of the evolution of these symptoms in a drug, enriched by experiences at the bed-side make this book a wonderful read for professionals and forms an important mate for students giving them the core essence of these remedies with subtle comparisons of their symptoms with those of similar remedies interspersed in between. Each chapter is in fact Kent’s plan of studying the remedy.

INTRODUCTION -A Book which every student of Homeopathy must have. As The Name suggests Lectures. So how this Book was formed So this is not a Book which Dr Kent wrote himself This Book is actually notes written by students while Dr Kent were delivering lectures to students in Homeopathy. So the Interesting part of This notes of lecture is that if you read this book with lots of heart and patience You can visualize Dr Kent himself Giving lecture to you (this is feeling one can get while reading the book) When I say why this is must have Book Or my most favourite Book of mine So I will be giving some Interesting points which justify this. First This Book teaches you in detail how actual symptoms appear in Patient in the consultation room How those symptoms are presented, and how to perceive these symptoms. So basically Kent's Materia medica will teach you case taking analysis evaluation, it's not just Materia medica it's complete package of Homeopathy Whole Homeopathy is being taught here starting from organon to materia medica to analysis .and what's the best part of Materia medica aspect first every symptom is explained in detail briefly with actual case examples that Dr Kent have seen in his practice ,Close drugs are differentiated therapeutically ,sea of mental symptoms given .but most best part that I Love about Dr Kent is In between Advices that Dr Kent gives us that a How a Homeopath Dr should be . IT FEELS A MENTOR GUIDING YOU THE WAY IN PRACTICE WILL START WITH EXAMPLES- 1-Observation skill during case taking and how modality of particular case needs to be noted is taught so well in above example – In brain troubles, if you put an Apis patient with congestion of the brain into a warm bath he will go into convulsions, and consequently warm bathing is not always "good for fits." It is taught in old school text-books so much that the old women and nurses know that a hot bath is good for fits, and before you get there just as like as not you will have a dead baby. This congestion of the brain, with little twitching’s and threatening convulsions, makes them put the baby in a hot bath and it is in an awful state when you get there. If the baby needs Op. or Apis in congestion of the brain the fits become worse by bathing in hot water. If the nurse has been doing that kind of business you have learned the remedy as soon as you enter the house, for she will say the child has been worse ever since the warm bath, has become pale as a ghost and she was afraid he was going to die. There you have convulsions worse from heat, pointing especially to Op. and Apis....Read More: https://www.homeopathy360.com/homeopathic-book-review-lectures-on-homoeopathic-materia-medica-reviewed-by-dr-yash-soni/
