Repertory of Homoeopathic Materia Medica is one of the legendary works gifted to the Homoeopathic world by Dr. James Tyler Kent in 1897 compiled on the basis of sound philosophy and deductive logic & comprehensible plan & construction. Wonderful cures have been made during the last 125 years & still counting in the 21st century as no such work has offered to compete or substitute this literature. Kent has tried to give a rational explanation of his philosophy. Even though it was one of the most complete & artistic work of the repertory field it underwent so many American & Indian editions due to ever increasing record of drug proving in our Materia Medica & added clinical experiments & observation. So, following that many stalwarts have started a work in direction to supplement the repertory of Homoeopathic Materia Medica like Barthel & Klunker,Friedrich schroyens etc. Some of them started working on miasmatic classification of rubrics of Kent’s repertory & so on.
Kent’s Comparative Repertory of The Homoeopathic Materia Medica is one of such works under which for the first time in the history of repertory medicines placed against rubric have been compared & differentiated from authentic source book especially in mind section to make the repertory more comprehensive.
