Human Condition: Critical is a thorough introduction to homeopathy for the public; explaining how the practitioner and the patient should approach disease and treatment in a homeopathic way.

Written and first published in 1993. The author communicates with easy to understand language and examples of how the body’s own healing potential can be unleashed through the power of homeopathy. Dr. Luc helps the reader understand homeopathic fundamentals such as taking a case history, establishing a patient’s time-line, discerning the hierarchy of symptoms that determine remedy choice, and assessing individual reactions to remedies and dosages, as well as determining the subsequent course of therapy. This book also introduces the reader to homeopathic guiding tenets, what to expect from homeopathy, how to get results, as well as how to build a relationship with your homeopath that will lead to a successful outcome.

This invaluable book serves as an introduction for the novice and also contains much helpful information for those who are already familiar with homeopathic practice. It shows that due to its holistic approach to modeling the human body why homeopathy is no mere adjunct to modern medicine. The author explains with simplicity and clarity, using cogent prose and poignant examples how this medical modality is a truly effective way to treat acute conditions, overcome chronic disease, and can restore mental, emotional, and physical health where modern allopathic approaches fail. With brilliance and originality he describes commonly overlooked fundamentals such as key ingredients that constitute good health, and the true root causes of disease that undermine vitality.
