Hello
Anybody have any positive or negative opinion on the latest F. Vermeulen books.
Synoptic Reference - THE 1ST 500 Rx &
Concordant reference-Complete Classic MM.. the latest one just published.
He has great books and was wondering how much duplication there is in either.
Thanks
Domenic

Re: Vermeulen Books
I got them and sold the old copies......they are more complete than the previous editions.
The only problem I have with them is the same as ever: no logical order!
For example if you look for an ovarian symptom in a remedy, you go to Female then have to read the whole paragraph as he can start with uterus, switch to menses in the second sentence, then tubes 3-4 times, back to uterus, then ovary and then another place, etc,......It show how he collated the symptoms from different authors, but he did not organise them; this allows to easily miss something important.
Otherwise, those are the MMs I use the most.

Re: Vermeulen Books
I have all the plant books. It helps me to get focused once in a while. But such a hassle to even find the family. I got some TOC on the web, but what a mess for a modern book.
Seems to get very carried away with imaginative themes so I am very careful and always looking for further collaboration. This is homeopathy, so I am glad he does not hold back.
All kinds of notes penciled into the old copies of the concordant. Can I afford to let go??? of course. Either you know it or you don't.
Best,
Ellen

There is a downloadable index for the 'Plants' on their website
I don't know how they did not include an index within the book
http://www.plantfamilies.net/index2.htm
click on Book, drop down to additional material
download Plant Family Index (I saved it as a PDF)

Lynn

Thanks Lynn,
I found that out much later. Much wasted time later.

Hello
Thanks to Lynn, Ellen, and Dr. Joe for the comments.
I did manage to find this link
http://www.narayana-publishers.com/Frans-Vermeulen/a912
it has downloadable table of contents and short snapshot of how the Rx are arranged and described.
the Concordant reference looks like the old green old with the same descriptions and many, many Rx.
The Synoptic look like R. MOrrison Desktop Guide.
Thanks again, for all comments.
Best Wishes Domenic
