Product Description
The American Institute of Homeopathy (AIH) is the oldest medical organization in the United States, founded three years before the American Medical Association. The American Institute of Homeopathy Handbook for Parents is the first AIH publication that offers another option for parents who are reluctant to participate in the widespread extreme measures of conventional medicine such as stimulants, antidepressants, and overuse of antibiotics. Step-by-step Edward Shalts, a medical doctor who practices homeopathic medicine, explains what homeopathy is and how it works. He presents a user-friendly overview of acute and chronic issues and shows how parents can deal with them, either on their own for some problems, or… More >>
Dr. Shalts M.D., D.Ht. a homeopath with 20 + years of clinical and academic experience is also a Trustee of the American Institute of Homeopathy and a Vice-President of the National Center for homeopathy. Somehow he managed to find a time from his busy schedule to write a guide book on a subject of Homeopathy. And what a gem it is! Although addressed to parents implying “pediatric” applications this book is clearly a guide for adults on how to maintain physical and mental health for their children and for themselves.
The book is written in lucid stile by using clear and precise language equally understandable to and acceptable by different segments of reading public such as regular folks as well as seasoned biomedical professionals

I really wanted to like this book as it got good reviews. Being a parent with above average intelligence, I figured I could really use this book. I was wrong. The author does give a very good history of homeopathy, but otherwise the book is disorganized, hard to follow and hard to use. I wanted a guide to help a novice (me)navigate the homeopathy offerings at wholefoods – this was not the book.

I recently opened a ‘healing products’ store in an Interstate Super Flea Market mall, and retail a branded homeopathic line of remedies. Not being a doctor, but making referrals to homeopathic professionals, this book was exactly what I needed to relate homeopathic remedies to visitors to my new store and provide them with simple comprehensive understandable information useful for adults and children, alike.
I believe the book to be a good bridge between patient and professional, alike, to understand specifics and the proper use of these wonderful medications anytime one is visiting or calling a professional practitioner.
I highly recomend it to any lay person, like myself, who is interested in learning about homeopathics with or without the help of a homepathics professional. For anyone with serious illiness, especially chronic sufferers of pain and acute disease, I highly recommend that one should always work with a trusted professional, and I strongly recommend browsing this book prior to selecting a homeopathic professional, and keeping it handy throughout any conversations and use of prescribed remedies.
After reading the book and answering a few customer questions today, I am so pleased that I am ordering additional copies from Amazon.com to make the book immediately available to my own customers who request it.

I was looking (still haven’t found) a book about homeopathic remedies, strengths and dosages. I didn’t find it in this book, most of the book explained how it is better to live healthy than to take medicines.

I have been using homeopathic remedies for some time, but this book opens up my understanding more on why, how much, what, and when. I have had phenomenal success using homeopathic remedies and would advise everyone interested in keeping dangerous drugs out of their bodies or those of their family’s should at least read up on the subject, and this is one of the books to start with!
I am always surprised when people say to me “that stuff is quackery, or you’ve been conned”, yet they will go to their doctor and get a drug with deadly side-effects and take it! If only they knew that not all the prescriptions doctors give out have been tested – which is why a doctor will say to them “we’ll try this one and if it doesn’t work, we’ll try something else!” And because it is a doctor who says it, people are gullible to believe that drug will not hurt them!
Get the book, READ IT, and then ask yourself is it worth a try? You can’t hurt yourself with it, and it won’t cost a fortune to buy it!
