Abstract
IN the second edition of this work, of which the first appeared twenty-one years ago, Dr. Charles E. Wheeler, consultant physician to the London Homœopathic Hospital and past president of the British Homœopathic Society, has received the collaboration of two other physicians to the hospital, Drs. J. Douglas Kenyon and Francis H. Bodman. The work is divided into two unequal parts. The first and smaller part, which contains four chapters, is devoted respectively to general considerations, the structure of the homœopathic materia medica, homœopathic pharmacy, potentization and dosage, and the choice and mode of administration of the remedy. The second part deals in alphabetical order with thirty-two of the drugs most frequently used in homœopathic medicine.
