Ten remedies from the Rosaceae family, presented thoroughly and clearly with in-depth case histories form the heart of this third instalment of Mangialavori's Materia Medica Clinica.
(From the back cover:) 'Whether dispensed by a vision (Sanguisorba) or encouraged by a belief that all is God's plan (Fragaria), these ideals shepherd them on their mission (Rubus fruticosus), to serve as a template of munificence (Pyrus), pushing them at times to the fringes of scoiety (Agrimonia). Their revolutionary idealism may gather followers (Rubus idaeus), but they are not fundamentalists, they do not want to impost their ideals; rather, they simply serve.
The five-petalled flowers, the thorny branches or stems, and the bitter stone hidden inside the oft-sweet fruit typify these plants and exemplify the homeopathic traits in these remedies: heart-centrered people who feel they must atone for any vestige of selfishness, turning away from instinctive anger in order to give everything.'
With a general introduction on the Rosaceae, a chapter on each remedy, and an appendix brimming with useful additional information (a repertory of themes and symptom patterns, a glossary and a repertory of common ailments among others), this is a wonderful and erudite book on this plant family and its main remedies, born of over thirty years of homeopathic study and practice.
