Dr. E. A. Farrington s Clinical Materia Medica is more than 100 years old book, and what a gem it is. Though it is a very nicely written book, it is not as popular as Kent s Lectures on Materia Medica. So, we at B. Jain decided to revamp this jewel.

This volume is based on the original Materia Medica of Western Herbs for the Southern Hemisphere by Carol Fisher and Gilian Painter and has been expanded and updated to include botanical, scientific, pharmacy and safety information. It is designed for worldwide use and contains detailed monographs of 180 medicinal herbs. There are appendices to help students understand pharmacological and medicinal actions, a glossary listing the known actions of common constituents, a table of interactions and a comprehensive therapeutic index. This textbook is valuable not only for students and practitioners of herbal medicine but is also of use to any health provider who wishes to know more about how and why herbs work and the safety issues related to them.

Books of therapeutics are available in the market but no book is available with applied materia medica as per system-wise therapeutics. This book contains medicines covering therapeutic and applied aspects arranged in a systemised manner. The medicines affecting various systems are very vast and this covers the syllabus of BHMS and PG courses in Homoeopathy. Here the author with his deep knowledge of the subject of Materia Medica & Homoeopathic Therapeutics has arranged the book systematically and individually with separate commentary on General Homoeopathic Therapeutics to make it simple and easily understood.
