Philosophy includes Hahnemann’s Organon (5th and 6th), Kent, Close, Burnett, Haehl, Gibson Miller, Royal, J. H. Allen, and Anshutz. Clinical, therapeutics, regional works, and short remedy pictures follow the same shelf.

Chapter text is on this shelf for study: open a title, then a heading. When a medicine appears in more than one materia medica, switch authors on the chapter to compare how each describes it. For educational use by students and qualified practitioners. Not medical advice.
