Reader Reviews
I have found homeopathy to be incredibly helpful for me personally so I was very interested in a book on this topic. I did read the book cover-to-cover, however I was disappointed by the organization... it includes sections on "what to do when" BUT in other (unrelated) parts of the book it will throw out lines such as "XYZ is the best remedy to try in this situation" but there's no way you'd ever know that if you had simply used the index or looked in the section ABOUT that particular situation. So in order to get the full value out of the book, you'd have to memorize it cover-to-cover so you'll actually be able to find the information you need at the moment when you need it, without re-reading the entire thing.... which a person is very unlikely to be able to do during labor!
