    Dr. VIJAYENDRA V Itagi

    I am lucky to be a reviewer of this book written by great true followers of Homoeopathy from generation to generation. I have attended Dr.Saptarshi Banergea’s webinars, and have gone through remedy explanations by watching them on YouTube. In one word I can say great academician, Physician & Author From the title of the book, students get a beneficial shortcut on how to memorise the symptomatology of different Homoeopathic medicines, particularly to reproduce during examinations. The skeleton of the book covers various areas of each remedy Totality, Constitution, Diathesis, Miasms, Physical generals, Mental picture, Aetiology, Characteristic features, Theme & Essence including Physical and Mental symptoms , Particular symptoms, General and Particular Modalities, Drug Relationship, Dosage and finally, Questions for Viva Voce tests. Realising the task of memorising the vast array of symptoms of polycrest drugs, the authors have presented most of them through MNEMONICS, which are extremely beneficial not only for the students, but also for the clinicians, teachers and all the professionals of Homoeopathy. This book is more useful for the students while appearing at the oral examinations in Materia Medica. Therefore, they have introduced “Oral Questionnaire” at the end of each drug with correct answers. The particular symptoms are presented under different systems, quoting various authors like Dr. Guernsey, Dr. EB Nash, Dr. Lippe , Dr. ML Tyler. Dr. C. Hering, Dr.TF Allen, Dr. HC Allen & Dr. JH Clarke etc. This book will assist the students of Undergraduates, Post Graduates and Clinicians, to select similimum remedy like a Quick bed prescriber (Bishambar Das) These great authors contributed their great work for the development of Homoeopathy. Wishing them all the best.

    The book 'Synoptic Memorizer of Materia Medica' by Dr. Subrata and Dr. Saptarshi Banerjea gives a very elaborative insight into various drugs of Homoeopathic Materia Medica. The authors have made it easier for students to memorize Materia Medica with the aid of pneumonics and tricks. Also, the comparative study of drugs is given wherever necessary. The authors have combined the indepth knowledge derived from various classical Materia Medica books and their own observations and have created a very student friendly version of Materia Medica taking into account both the examination perspective as well the clinical perspective. Overall, I would definitely recommend this book to any homoeopathic student for their academic as well as clinical development.

    The book titled “Synoptic Memorizer of Materia Medica” is documented by two authors, Dr. Subrat Kumar Banerjea- the father and Dr. Saptarshi Banerjea-the son, who represent the fourth and fifth generation, respectively, of the famous Dr. Banerjea family of West Bengal. From the title of the book, many readers may interpret as if it only shows a shortcut way how to memorize the symptomatology of different homoeopathic medicines, particularly by the students to reproduce during examinations. But in reality, the book encompasses various areas covering Drug totality, Constitution, Diathesis, Miasms, Physical generals, Mental picture, Aetiology, Characteristic features, Theme & Essence (including Physical and Mental essence), Particular symptoms(system-wise), General and Particular Modalities, Drug Relationship, Dosage and finally, Questions for Viva Voce tests. Frankly speaking, I don’t remember having read any Materia Medica book in Homoeopathy, covering all these domains in one place. Realising the arduous task of memorizing the vast array of symptoms of polycrest drugs, the authors have presented most of them through MNEMONICS, which are extremely beneficial not only for the students, but also for the clinicians, teachers and all the professionals of Homoeopathy. Being the teachers of Homoeopathic Materia Medica of two generations, the authors know the difficulties faced by the students while appearing at the oral examinations in Homoeopathic Materia Medica. Therefore, they have introduced “Oral Questionnaire” at the end of each drug with correct answers. A new concept they have added is “Theme & Essence”, under each medicine, including ‘Physical Theme’ and ‘Mental Theme’, in which the essence of the drug is presented in a unique way to conceptualise, comprehend, and memorize easily. The particular symptoms are presented under different systems, quoting veteran authors like Dr. C. Hering, Dr. TF Allen, Dr. HC Allen, Dr. JH Clarke, Dr. Cowperthwaite, Dr. Dunham, Dr. Farrington, Dr. Guernsey, Dr. EB Nash, Dr. Lippe, Dr. Teste and Dr. ML Tyler. In the second, revised and enlarged edition of the book, the authors have made sincere endeavours to highlight the practical implications and applications of the book in clinical practice. I am confident, the book will assist the clinicians to prescribe the correct similimum for the patients, help the teachers to present the drug profiles creating an interesting and congenial environment in classrooms, and finally the students, to delve into the ocean of Materia Medica and bring out the cream essential for their academic fulfilments. I wish the authors will continue their efforts to document more valuable books in future for the benefit of homoeopathic professionals.
