If you are looking for a homeopathic book as a gift - for yourself or someone else - this should be at the top of your list. Thought-provoking philosophies blending Taoism and homeopathy, with lovely Chinese calligraphies throughout. A true gift from Ian Watson. From the foreword by Jeremy Sherr: "If someone undertook to convert the Tao Te Ching into a practical system of medicine, they would have to come up with homeopathy. Following the Tao includes recognising and discriminating between what is true and what is false, what is timely and what is not. Acceptance, in life and in homeopathy, must be based on knowledge and contrasted by the ability to choose. Beyond these approaches and principles, and of equal importance, is Lao Tzu's portrayal of the state of being appropriate to true practitionerss of the healing art. It is these dynamic perspectives that Ian Waton describes so poetically in this book. His verses guide the practitioner in the tai chi of homeopathic living, gently reminding us to yield and overcome in the context of clinical practice. With so many modern textbooks concentrating solely on the goal of finding 'the remedy', this reminder of Tao's wisdom is a timely gift, transforming daily work into a meditation on the path of healing."
