      In seinen 73 Vorlesungen beschreibt E. A. Farrington 600 Arzneimittel der homöopathischen Materia Medica. Jedes Mittel wird analysiert, indem er dessen Vergleichsmittel gegenüberstellt und so am klinischen Leitsymptom die verschiedenen Arzneimittel thematisch und differenzialdiagnost... voneinander abgrenzt. Darüber hinaus zeigt Farrington die systematische Ordnung der Arzneien nach den botanischen Familien, Klassen und chemischen Ordnungssystemen. Diese zusätzlichen Informationen helfen Ihnen, die tieferen Beziehungen der Arzneisymptome zueinander und die typischen Symptome jeweiliger Arzneifamilien zu verstehen. „Der Farrington“ gehört seit langem zu den unverzichtbaren Standardwerken der Homöopathie. In der werkgetreuen und quellenkritischen Übersetzung des preisgekrönten Rainer Wilbrand ist das Werk ein Juwel der klassischen homöopathischen Literatur.
