The Herdsman's Introduction to Homeopathy

From the Book

This, I believe, is the first introduction to homeopathic medicine written by a practising Dairyman who has had extensive experience in the management of dairy cattle. As such he is uniquely qualified to write on the common or everyday ailments affecting dairy livestock.

This book is the result of many years of patient observation of cattle ailments and their relevance to homeopathic treatment. From initial skepticism of the value of such an approach he has become wholly convinced of the efficacy of homeopathic treatment.

The various conditions to which he refers are clearly set out and should offer a ready-made guide to farmers and dairymen who wish to investigate this form of medicine and to partake in its undoubted benefits.

This little book is a most welcome addition to the library of cattle homeopathy books. The practical basis of the book is obvious from the text and the reader should gain reassurance from the authors' experience.

Whilst being brief, Mr Hansford has managed to include a great deal of invaluable information easily accessible in a handy small volume. A vital guide to homeopathy for the diary herdsperson.
