New Delhi.<\/p>\n \u201cThe greatest part of a writer\u2019s time is spent in reading, in order to write; a man will turn over half a library to make one book.\u201d \u2014Samuel Johnson.<\/strong><\/p>\n Boger\u2019s Legacy<\/u> & Augmenting the Synoptic Key\u2019s Repertory, book has beautifully authored by Dr.Anil Singhal with lots of references from many stalwarts and foreword by Dr. M.P.Arya a most senior Homoeopath and eminent Repertorian of India. As we all know that very few stalwarts worked on Boenningahusen\u2019s and Boger\u2019s literature. Boger\u2019s Legacy<\/strong> is all about inspirational and very exhaustive work on Boger\u2019s monumental contribution both practical as well as theoretical points of view. First time after good research in Homoeopathic history, he has unwrapped lot of information about Dr. Cyrus Maxwell Boger.<\/em> In author\u2019s words, this book is a manifestation of years of dedicated exploration and research, culminating in a comprehensive understanding of Boger\u2019s thought process, methodologies and the evolution of his essential texts- the Boenningahusen\u2019s characteristics and repertory and synoptic key<\/em>.<\/p>\n Dr. Anil Singhal is a practicing Homoeopath from New Delhi.\u00a0 He is also working as visiting faculty at many Homoeopathic medical colleges surrounding New Delhi. He is receiver of Lifetime Achievement Award<\/em>. My first opinion after opening this book was, after long time a good book on Dr. Boger and his contribution for Homeopathy has come in the market. <\/strong>Only after going through the Acknowledgement, preface and foreword one will get idea of about author\u2019s hard work.<\/p>\n The author has divided the book in 5 topics.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>\u00a0The foundation of Boger\u2019s Legacy<\/em>. – Boenningahusen\u2019s early work especially Repertory of Antipsoric medicine was prepared and published by Dr. Boenninghasen according to guidance of Master Hahnemann. As we know Dr. Boger was close follower of Dr. Boenninghasen, to stop criticism on Boenningahusen\u2019s work he decided to work on Boenningahusen\u2019s repertory with Particularization. Which gave birth to BBCR- an extensive compilation that forever changed Homeopathic discourse? After the death of Boger his wife took lead and because of her efforts different Indian editions came in market.<\/p>\n In this chapter author explored BBCR and shows its practical utility. Comparisons as previous method of working and deeper understanding of Boger\u2019s method of working as most practical philosophy of Homoeopathic practice i.e. considering time- dimension, tissue affinities and pathological generals. <\/em>On page no.65 author explored about theory of pathological generals and writes that, by doing so Boger bridged the gap between classical Homeopathic Principles and emerging discoveries in cellular pathology, further enriching the practice of Homoeopathy. This philosophical point I liked most and was challenge to Dr. Boger when there were many how were following Kentian philosophy. While doing this author has beautifully correlated references of Dr. Boger\u2019s other work like \u201cThe study of Materia Medica and taking the case\u201d General Analysis, Studies in philosophy of healing, Time of Remedies & Moon Phases\u00a0 and also important remarks of legends of Indian Homoeopathy etc. in short author proved that how Boger\u2019s work is rooted on Boenningahusen\u2019s repertory. I am very impressed by author\u2019s contribution for the cause of Homeopathy. This book is became a boon for teachers, students, interns, Post graduate students, and also the practitioners which will prove as source book. I feel this book \u201cBoger\u2019s Legacy\u201d must find a place in the every college library.<\/p>\n This topic includes important subtopics like Boger\u2019s balancing act; Generalization & Practicality. Boger\u2019s methodical Precision: ensuring quality, reflections in BSK from 5th<\/sup> & 6th<\/sup> edition and also its evolution, Boger\u2019s approach of case studies. Relation with BBCR & General Analysis.<\/p>\n I wish the best for further development of Synoptic key to Materia Medica & Repertory.<\/p>\n At the end author added very interesting massage to readers, stating our role in advancing Boger\u2019s Legacy. <\/em><\/strong>(In authors words with the insights and wisdom gleaned from Boger\u2019s unparalleled work, you are now part of a tradition and a future filled with limitless possilities. Embrace the legacy, explore the paths not yet taken and contribute to the ever- evolving world of Homoeopathy)<\/em><\/p>\n Reviewed by. Reviewed by Prof. Dr. Khanaj Vidyadhar R.
