James Tyler Kent · What the Doctor Needs to Know in Order to Make a Successful Prescription · 49 passages

For all complaints, whether local or general, the preceding sections should all be consulted and every symptom reported as herein directed.

For private diseases of men, Homoepathy offers a more radical cure than any other system of medicine.

Local treatment by injections or applications is not curative, but suppressive.

When so called local diseases are suppressed, or disappear under local treatment, they form the basis of chronic conditions which not only cause much annoyance and suffering, but are transmitted by heredity and may cause a lifetime of suffering to the children of lawful wedlock.

Many persons have expiated the sins of the father by years of untold suffering. "Visiting the iniquities of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation."

The only sure and reasonable way is to eradicate the disease by internal constitutional medication. This is the real object of true homoeopathic treatment.

For all complaints, whether local or general, consult especially Sections 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 32.
