Dr Lex Rutten started as a general practitioner in conventional medicine in 1978 but soon became interested in homeopathy as an addition to conventional medicine. Studying statistics the author discovered Bayes' theorem as a real eye-opener: this is how experience works. He published dozens of scientific papers and teaches homeopathy and research in the Netherlands, India, and Argentina. He developed a protocol for clinical research and organized the first prospective validation of symptoms in homeopathy.
Dr Martine is an assistant professor at Delft Technical University. Her PhD thesis was titled "Moisture in the topsoil, from large-scale observations to small scale process understanding" and her specialty is water management. She has vast experience in teaching statistics and the methodology of research.
Using experience to choose the right homeopathic medicine can be expressed as a statistical algorithm. Hitherto there were no books explaining how statistics are involved in many medical decisions and how to assess practice experience, like the relationship between symptoms and beneficial effects of homeopathic medicines.
Key Features:-
- The book covers basic statistical concepts and methods, making them accessible to those who may not have a strong background in statistics.
- The book emphasizes the importance of proper study design in choosing homeopathic medicine and ensures that the results are valid and reliable.
- It can be used in homeopathic training programs to help future practitioners understand the importance of evidence-based practice.

Customer Reviews
“Homoeopathy has been attacked by its critics and skeptics, particularly in the field of research, for want of adequate research studies based upon required methodology and statistical analysis. Homoeopathy researchers had to face a lot of difficulties to pursue scientific and evidence-based research, owing to lack of standard books to guide. But this book on ‘Fundamentals of Statistics and Clinical Research in Homoeopathy’ by Dr. Lex Rutten will fill up this void, to a great extent. Although RCT has been considered as gold standard in clinical research in modern medicine, yet the authors have outlined the scope and limitations of this study design in homoeopathy clinical trials. This book will also help the P.G. and PhD scholars to select the appropriate methodology including statistical tools for conducting their research and in outcome analysis. This will further facilitate publication of their research studies in peer-reviewed medical journals, in general and Homoeopathy journals in particular.”....Read Morehttps://www.homeopathy360.com/book-review-of-fundamentals-of-statistics-and-clinical-research-in-homoeopathy-by-dr-lex-rutten/
