Master gathered his experiences and developments in the book Clinical Neurology for Homeopathic Doctors . Asked about his vision for homeopathy over the next ten years, Master thinks that much of homeopathy's future growth depends on how well the homeopathic community is able to document its achievements. He feels that only meticulous gathering of medical evidence as well as easy access to case data and treatment statistics will ultimately win homeopathy the place it deserves. Master began the seminar by honing our case-taking skills and preparing us to become good observers for the many cases he had in store. Although treatment of young children is not in principle different from treating adults, the emphasis in case-taking and the interpretation of the patient's behavior is different.
Birth is the most important point in the history of any human being.
It is the mother's experiences during and before birth that help us unravel the history of the young patient, as little else has yet had the chance to leave its impression. Much can be learned from observing how the child takes the breast. The vocal expressions of the young provide us with the next set of clues. The typical demanding cry of Cina and Chamomilla is well known, as is the more whimpering and whiny cry of Pulsatilla and Calcarea phosphorica. Much of a child's behavior is directed toward seeking attention.
