Purchase options and add-ons

This is a most interesting book that combines psychology with homeopathy. Philip Bailey describes in depth the personality profiles of some 35 polychrests. The last pages of the book cover a mix of psychological astrology and homeopathy when he explores the elements and some polychrests. Bailey provides detailed information on 35 major types, giving insight on diagnosis, mental and emotional traits, and physical characteristics. His broad profiles of major constitutional remedies give the reader a good overall picture of the personality type and therefore ways of remembering facts about the archetype, by having a unifying theory for each remedy.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This book gives insights into the basic nature of many important remedies. It is well-written and accurate. I recommend it to all serious students of homeopathy."
- Roger Morrison, M.D.

"Homeopathic Psychology furthers our understanding of the psychology of the major homeopathic remedies. Dr. Baliey explains well our existing knowledge of the remedies and broadens our understanding of them, providing numerous highly original observations. His descriptions of the psychogenesis and psychodynamics of the remedies is engrossing."
- George Guess, M.D., DHt

From the Back Cover

The most common personality types recognized by homeopathic practitioners are brought to life in this new book by an insightful physician and homeopath. These thirty-five typologies are described in light of common behaviors, primary emotional tendencies, internal conflicts, and spiritual issues that each of them face. This book is essential for serious students and practitioners of homeopathic medicine, and it will be of use as well to homeopathic patients or anyone interested in typology research. Understanding these archetypal personalities enables us to better know ourselves, our family, and the people with whom we interact day-to-day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lots of info
Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2022

I have only looked at a few pages to quickly inspect the book after shipping. First impression - there's a lot of print per page so no skimping with wide margins. The print is more gray than black. At first I thought this would be an issue but it actually seems easier on the eyes. Don't know if this is intentional or just print quality.

The book opened up (interestingly enough) on a characteristic of a lessor known constitutional type that really drew my attention. I was immediately fascinated and began reading it right out of the pkg. The writing style is very engaging. I don't know if the book is accurate yet but it certainly doesn't seem like a dry read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely nailed it!
Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2009

I was looking for info on a constitutional remedy and stumbled upon an online preview of this book. As 'luck' would have it, the preview had the chapter on the needed remedy in its entirety (though most other chapters were missing from the preview). I got what I needed, so I didn't really need the book anymore, but I was SO impressed that I ordered it anyway!

I agree with the other reviewers - this book is hard to put down! I have nearly finished the whole book, even though most of the remedies did not apply to anyone I know. It is exceedingly well-written and details the subtle differences between the remedies. I especially liked how he mentioned other remedies in each chapter, further clarifying the differences between several remedies which might confuse the practitioner at first glance.

I am absolutely blown away by this book! I'm not a practitioner, so I cannot comment on the accuracy of the info from a clinical perspective, but I can say that his descriptions were uncannily accurate, on the several remedies that matched my loved ones. I have a keen, personal interest in Homeopathy, and have read only a few books on constitional remedies, but so far, this blows them all away! By far the most in-depth Homeopathy book I've ever read!

I was also impressed with the author's knowledge of and correlations with mythological archetypes, which proved very useful.

If I may be so bold, I would venture to say that practitioners would find much of value in this book, even if they disagree with some of the author's observations.

Well this felt like a book made for me. It described in clear compassionate detail the psychological ways we cope with life. My own families dynamics were clearly shown. This knowledge in and of itself was hugely empowering, even without having taken any remedy. Needless to say I am not a practitioner, but a lay person interested to understand the why of my own emotionality. Compelling reading. Could not put the book down.

I have read snippets of the various constitutions as determined by homeopathy, but wanted to learn more about them, to understand them much more in depth. This is the perfect book for that. Very detailed prose on many of the constitutions, with interpretations and brief case details from the author's homeopathic and psychiatric practice. This is the book if you want to be making more accurate constitution determinations. I read it cover to cover as it was so interesting.

4.0 out of 5 stars interesting read
Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2011
Verified Purchase
I'm not a homeopath, so I can not judge the accuracy of the descriptions of the constitutuonal types. I can say that the book drawns you into it and it really makes Homeopathy a living subject. But I wonder if Hahnemann would approve that a professional homeopath should limit his scope to the 35 constitutional types, described here.
In the homeopathy, there are more than thousand remedies and each has a mental picture that could be your constitutional remedy too.

But as a client of a classical homeopath, I can tell you that many professional homeopaths miss the clue when you only have slight mental complains and it's then that they fail to recognise the similimum. So I think that they should study the mental pictures more in detail and I belive that this book could be an asset.

5.0 out of 5 stars Modern perspective - very valuable
Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2019
Verified Purchase
Most of the original works on homeopathy provide crude / extreme examples of the mental processes that are affected. This is a modern perspective which presents subtler aspects of the condition. This allows diagnosis and treatment (or self-treatment) to support therapeutic work.
