Laid out as long charts, the symptomatology of many of the polychrests are compared and differentiated.Comparative materia medica study is a field which has been neglected except in a very few instances by early masters in homoeopathic materia medica. It is not enough to understand our remedies so that we recognize in the symptoms of a patient the outline of a remedy; the similar remedy is not enough. We must know the differences and the similarity so that we can select the simillimum if we wish to justify our choice of homoeopathic practice as sound therapeutic procedure.
