The Lady's Manual of Homeopathic Treatment

Originally published around 1900, this is an excellent manual of homeopathic treatments, focussing solely on female medical problems. It includes an exhaustive list of ailments and treatments and is still of great practical value today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
