Unlike any other materia medica, yet still based upon the dependable provings of the old masters, Dr. Luc addresses common difficulties encountered by both experienced and beginning homeopaths alike. The literal citation of proving symptoms without cogent analysis, as they appear in both old and modern materia medica, offers too little explanation for practical modern clinical application. Within the illuminating context of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Jungian psychology and philosophy, each portrait in this modern materia medica expresses the patient's language followed by the translation from the cryptic language of the classic materia medica. Clinical examples enliven the text while confirming the provings of the old masters. Differential diagnoses with the most common complementary remedies are analyzed to illustrate the finer nuances of remedies belonging to the same rubric. Delusions are explained and grouped thematically so that their often enigmatic messages are revealed in the remedy story. Finally, each portrait is enhanced with the section, "Golden Tips from the Masters," from his unpublished Gems and Pearls.
