Index contents: • Materia Medica (pharmaceutical or Latin names) • Repertory ( Mind, head, Eyes, Ear, Nose, Fase, Moth, Tongue, Taste, Gums, Teeth, Throat, Stomach, Abdomen, Urinary system, Male sexual system, Female sexual system, Respiratory system, Circulatory system, Locomotor system, Nervous system, Fever, Skin, Generalities, Modalities) • Index To the Repertory • Therapeutic Index • Some Indian Drugs • Some Important Nosodes and Sarcodes • Some important Mother tinctures • Rare and Uncommon Remedys • Relationship of Remedys • The side of the body and Drug Affinities • List of Abbreviations • List of Remedys (Common name) Special Features of the Book: Along with other less significant symptoms that help in the selection of the curative remedy, the book includes the well-known, verified characteristic symptoms of all our medicines. The school’s published clinical experience has been updated to include all the new medications and necessities. It has the most trustworthy materia medica facts possible packed into the smallest amount of space in its current compact form. In an effort to keep up with other developments in the field of homoeopathy in particular and medicine in general, the most recent version of the Boericke was published at the start of the new millennium. First off, every grammatical problem has been fixed, and the book has been technically updated to reflect contemporary terms. Without altering the wording of the entire book, for instance, pressure deep in the orbits (glaucoma). The text’s current terminology, which is only used in brackets, has been correlated with a number of reference works, including the Handbook of Materia Medica by Dr. T. F. Allen, 1001 Small Remedies by Dr. F. Schroyens, and the Dictionary of Practical Materia Medica by Dr. J. H. Clarke. To maintain a more structured and consistent pattern, the medicines’ Mind, Head, Eyes, etc. sequence has been organized in accordance with those in Kent’s Repertory throughout the entire book. This edition has also been made easier by footnotes at the bottom of the page. For example, on page 25, under the heading “Throat Deafness,” it says:-1-Hearing-impaired-enlarged-tonsils (1001 Small Remedies, edited by Dr. F. Schroyens), which elaborates or explains the related symptom in more detail and includes the title of the referenced book. According to the Synthesis, all drug abbreviations and names in the book and repertory are now things like Thuya – Thuj, Helleb – Hell, etc. Additionally, all spellings have been updated to reflect the 28th edition of Dorland; for example, diarrhea has been changed to diarrhea and anaesthetic to anesthesia. The chapters in the repertory section of this book have been rearranged to minimize confusion while maintaining the same rhythm and following Kent’s Repertory. The definition of each term and the corresponding page numbers have been added to the index of the repertory, making it more comprehensive and user-friendly. More details and additional additions have been made available for the previously existent Indian Drugs. In order to shed additional light on this, comparatively under-studied area of homoeopathy, a special section on several regularly used nosodes has been included to this volume, along with a reorganized Rare and Uncommon Remedies section. To give the reader a head start in his quest to explore the vast sphere of knowledge that this edition is going to provide, an Index of the Drugs, with both common and Latin names, has been introduced in the beginning of this book under Contents along with the proper listing of all the Chapters.

Nothing more can be said about Boericke's New Manual Of Homoeopathic Materia Medica & Repertory, as mentioned in the title itself it covers both the major aspects of Homoepathy. A perfect guide to the science. No doubt it is one of the major book by the stalwart.

What I find amazing is the explanation of the medicines, Dr. Boericke has not left out anything, starting from the common name to the relationship of medicines. Amazing book and a must have book.

The most important book for Materia medica covering all the medicines. There is no other book needed to be consulted after it. it is a precious piece.

The most amazing aspect of the book is repertory which gives only 2 grading of symptoms, easy to consult and remember. also it covers the maximum drugs present in materia.

The most helpful books of all times. The Bible. Can trust blindly for MM and Repertory.
