The Materia Medica half of Patricia Hatherly’s The Lacs: A Materia Medica & Repertory, for the case where a milk remedy is under consideration. It is a digital book for RadarOpus that would run to more than 300 pages in print.
It covers the 20 Lacs that have published provings. The detailed symptoms are interspersed with Hatherly’s own commentary from her work as a Homeopath and lactation consultant: where a Doctrine of Signatures reading helps, and which markers set one Lac apart from another. Each chapter has a bibliography and a list of remedies to consider in differential diagnosis.
