The book is very simple. It is based on the experience (gathered over
a number of years) that people who respond well to certain remedies
often express a color preference-- often seen in the clothes they
wear.
The book consists of a series of colors (very exact and extremely
well printed), and a table describing which colors are associated
with which remedies.
Cases are given, as well as advice about the accuracy of the system.
It is wonderfully empiric-- right in line with Hahnemann's thinking
that you must observe.
Here are observations (the patient liked this color and responded to
this remedy), a hypothesis (another patient liked the same), a trial
(would this patient respond to the same remedy?) and a conclusion
that supports the hypothesis (yes, patient did).
The author does NOT suggest that this is a method of finding the
remedy (patient wears yellow? Give them remedy x) but a TOOL to use
as a possible verification for remedy selection.
It's pretty amazing.
The book is available from www.homeo.de or
www.narayana-verlag.de . It is NOT
cheap (about $80 US). But the quality of the color printing is
impeccable. Also, it is in both English and German.
