This book is worth reading. It is critical evaluation of the discipline, it reviews and aims to define the knowledge gaps, offering a critique of the uses of traditional homoeopathic remedies. It discusses the findings of clinical trials and research into effectiveness and safety, drug 'provings', the placebo effect/response, and the socio-economic aspects of homoeopathy.
