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.

An effective management of a patient, to ensure his recovery to health, is almost as important as administration of a similar medicine. All physicians would agree to the fact that an improper management in a particular case may result in slow recovery of the patient or worse, the patient's death. One case acquire the knowledge of management of disease from any of the existing classical text-books on practice of Medicine. A homeopathic physician, however, besides this, is much more interested in the management of a sick person on an individualised basis. This is due to the fact that he knows 'a man is more important than his parts'.

Using published studies and their own research and clinical experience, two prominent physicians and researchers provide easy-to-understand guidelines for using homeopathic remedies, real-life cases of miracle cures, and frank talk about homeopathy's limitations. Clearly written, this sourcebook includes a "toolbox" of homeopathic treatments, as well as advice on finding a reliable practitioner. Ailments addressed include:
-- Sinus infections
-- Heartburn and digestive problems
-- Insomnia
-- Colds and sore throats
-- And many more.

In The Book of Herbal Wisdom Matthew Wood creates a vast and sweeping history of herbalism, drawing on Western botanical knowledge, homeopathy, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Native American shamanic botony. Detailing the history and use of more than forty plants, he shows how each tradition views a plant, as well as its use in cases drawn from his own herbal and homeopathic practice. An initial section describes signatures, similars, and patterns in these traditions, and elements, temperaments, and constitutions. Wood has two objectives: to demonstrate how herbal medicines are agents of healing and wisdom, and to give the reader a useful catalogue of plants for medicinal uses. His clinical observations of his patients bear the wry wisdom of the country doctor; his love of plants is evident in lush botanical descriptions, which show the connection between remedies - whether homeopathic, Chinese, or Native American - and the plants from which they are derived. The Book of Herbal Wisdom brings to readers centuries of lore about healing from indigenous traditions, at a time when people are exploring empirical enthosciences with a seriousness unparalleled in history. In no other contemporary botanical compendium have North American Indian medicine, homeopathy, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Western herbalism been so thoroughly integrated, and so engagingly described.
