Praxis was published in 2004 and presents the rudiments of my thinking and the foundations of my original model of study, research and work. I am looking forward to writing a new bbok that will clarify what is illustrated in this one, after more than 20 years of applying this model and evolving my thinking through continuous discussion of my clinical practice. Nevertheless, Praxis remains a text of fundamental importance for those interested in better understanding the Method of Complexity in Homeopathic Medicine.
The decision to deal specifically with certain drug remedies was a deliberate one: in fact, one of the foundations of this method is precisely the concept of the homeopathic family, which does not respect the rigidity of botanical taxonomies, nor of others which, in my opinion, are not focused on the clinical aspect and, above all, on the concept of the organisation of the themes that characterise similar remedies.
The clinical cases I present clearly demonstrate the similarities between these remedies, even though they are substances from completely different botanical taxonomies, even different kingdoms, as Bufo is an animal, Agaricus is a fungus, Aether is a gas, and Lithium carbonicum is a mineral. And yet …
The first volume deals with:
The concept of similarity and its application
The definition of themes in homeopathic medicine, their hierarchy and organisation.
The concept of homeopathic families and subfamilies.
The so-called case taking and negative diagnosis.
The analysis of the clinical case.
Clinical material and criteria for the validity of cases.
Repertory additions.
