ABOUT THE BOOK 

In this book Dr. James Compton Burnett focuses on the constitutional approach to the treatment of skin diseases as these are, like any other disease, a manifestation of the dynamically deranged life principle and not local conditions which can be excised or cured by topical applications which prevents the peripheral expression of the disease onto the skin and therefore it is required to discuss the diseases that are manifested from the suppression of the skin maladies such as angina pectoris from suppressed skin diseases, asthma , psoriasis and enlarged liver , double cataract from suppressed eruption.

The book has been divided into three separate sections for the convenience of reading:-

The first part dealing with effect of suppression in skin diseases;
The second part containing case records with dosage and follow-up
Third part offers a discussion on the constitutional cure of alopecia areata with case records to guide through its management.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
  • Born in 1840 in Redlynch, near Salisbury, England, Burnett was a physician who eventually converted from conventional (“allopathic”) medicine to homeopathy. ([Hahnemann House Trust.
  • He studied medicine in Vienna and Glasgow, showing early excellence (including a gold medal in anatomy), before embracing homeopathy as his main path. ([Hahnemann House Trust.
  • Burnett is known for his prolific output: many books and pamphlets on homeopathy, case studies, constitutional treatment, tumor treatment, and more. ([Hahnemann House Trust.
  • Some of his notable works include *Diseases of the Skin*, *Curability of Tumours by Medicines*, *Tumours of the Breast*, *Fifty Reasons for Being a Homoeopath*, etc. ([Hahnemann House Trust.
  • He also had an influence beyond medicine: he was father to novelist Ivy Compton-Burnett. His work and writing shaped homeopathic practice in his era. ([Hahnemann House Trust.
