This book is available new for $19.95 from homeopathic book sellers. Too terrible Amazon does not carry it, but no reason to buy a used copy when you can get a new one for the same price.
Rating: 5 / 5
The reprint was date 1997 and has the older cover, not the one pictured on Amazon. Also, there is no index in the back nor reference list for
organizations. There are very brief and incomplete descriptions of the
remedies; but, some value to the book as it has some small known remedies that warrant further research.

A veterinary materia medica and repertory — what a fantastic thought! But, this very compact book will not eliminate the need for a standard materia medica and repertory, nor is it proposed to. The materia medica catalogues only about 280 remedies (listed alphabetically). Each entry includes in rank about the remedy’s origin, the major actions on the body systems, and some of the most common uses of the remedy. Even as the entries for some of the major remedies span over a page, other entries take up only a small paragraph, and Dr. Macleod concedes that there is much more that may possibly be written about each remedy’s actions and indications. Clearly his book is meant to be used in conjunction with a more comprehensive standard materia medica. The materia medica of the nosodes also includes a guide to using nosodes therapeutically as well as prophylactically (though the effectiveness of the latter is to some extent controversial in classical homeopathy circles). Finally there is a brief clinical repertory that lists common ailments (no detailed lists of symptoms as is the case with more comprehensive standard repertories) and some of the remedies that may be indicated for their treatment. The list of remedies is by no means exhaustive, so further research may well be necessary to find the right remedy.
