A keynote symptom therefore may fall into any of the following categories of symptoms- 1. Very peculiar symptom 2. Mental concomitant with bodily disease.

3. Precise locality

4. Course and direction of pain and sensation 5. Alternative symptoms

6. Modalities It is at this point essential to note that nowhere has Dr. Hahnemann advocated the use of keynotes for making prescriptions. Then what logic compelled Dr. Guernsey to formulate and promulgate this system of prescribing homeopathy? The answer to this fundamental question is reflected in the following quote by Dr. Guernsey. In the introduction to Application of Principles of Homeopathy to Obstetrics, Guernsey stated: “The plan of treatment may seem to some rather novel, and, perhaps, on its first view, as objectionable, in as much as it may seem like prescribing for single symptoms; whereas such is not the fact. It is only meant to state some strong characteristic symptom, which will often be found as the governing symptom, and on referring to the Symptomen Codex, all the others will surely be there if this one is.” Later this system of prescribing homeopathic medicines found another ardent supporter in Dr. H. C. Allen who gave us the very popular- ‘Allen’s Keynotes and Nosodes’. However, both Dr. Guernsey and Dr. Allen maintained a unanimous opinion that Keynotes are only suggestive and not conclusive in any way. Now in a situation where time holds the greatest essence, keynote prescribing is certainly found more practical, realistic, and feasible- all at the same time And this holds true and convenient not just for the doctors with huge queues of people waiting outside their OPDs but also for the patients who have to rush to work, schools, colleges or even return home post consultation with their physician in this fast paced world. A Quick Word On Issue Content With elucidating words on the utility of Keynote Prescribing in the clinical setup, the role of Keynotes in Selecting a Similimum for Local Diseases, and in one-sided diseases, this issue features an unexplored arena of the life of Dr. J. T. Kent from the pen of Dr. Subhas Singh et al and an insightful article on Keynote Prescription by Dr. Y. D. Niturkar coming from the editor’s desk. Additionally, this issue brings forth myriad articles by physicians and academicians from around the globe presenting their cases resolved through keynote prescribing for our readers to appreciate the usage of this ‘not-so-classical’ method of homeopathic treatment founded by Dr. Guernsey.
