The authors, practicing naturopathic physicians, aim to provide a "simple, practical, highly informative yet user friendly guide to self treatment," and in this they succeed. They emphasize that their guide is meant for treatment of first aid or acute conditions, not chronic or complicated ones. This well-organized book is divided into three parts. Part 1 explains homeopathy and how to use the guide and discusses "taking the case" as well as analyzing, selecting, and administering homeopathic medicines. Part 2, the bulk of the work, lists ailments from abscesses to motion sickness and the homeopathic medicines used to treat them. Icons prompt the user to follow the steps outlined in Part 1. Part 3 describes the main features of the most commonly used homeopathic medicines, and here it helps to have read Part 1 first. Appendixes include lists of books, organizations, homeopathy pharmacies, and information on how to find a homeopath.
