This book by Dr. Ajit Kulkarni provides, in a comprehensive manner, what a scientifically minded homoeopath looks for the selection of an appropriate homoeopathic potency and repetition schedule in a scientific and logical way.

Dr. Ajit Kulkarni places the whole theme of potency on 9 components viz.

1. Disease Potential.
2. Sensitivity.
3. Susceptibility.
4. Etiological factors : maintaining, precipitating and fundamental.
5. Miasmatic dominance.
   
6. Similarity : degree and level.
   
7. Suppression.
   
8. Type of the patient.
   
9. The nature of vitality.
   
   
   Each component has been elaborated in detail. While dealing with each component, the practical orientation has been maintained by the author through and through. The author has vast knowledge of homoeopathic philosophy and practice and he uses it freely in his write-up. For example - in giving the disease potential as one of components of potency, he incorporates further several sub-components. In this way the whole exercise becomes very practical, both from analytical and synthetic point of view. A new section on Repetition has been introduced to guide for follow-up of a case.

At the end the author provides some cases to justify all of his philosophical and practical themes.

A second revised edition has been published.
