Description
QUICK OVERVIEW
Dr Boger was the best disciple of Dr Boenninghausen and he proved this by making one of the greatest text on homoeopathic literature that is, Boger Boenninghausen’s Characteristics and Repertory. All those who criticized Boeningahusen’s work for no differentiation between general and particular modalities, got an answer for it in this repertory. The plan of this book is based on ‘Repertory of the Antipsorics’, which is one of the most initial and fine repertories of homoeopathic history. This book has modalities for each part given at the end of concerned section of repertory. there is also a section devoted to general modalities at the end of the book. This edition has the advantage over all others for being most accurate of them all. It has been checked by Late Dr D.P. Rastogi and Dr. V.D. Sharma, who have corrected more than 100 errors in the abbreviations of name of drugs used in the repertory.
In this edition, both characteristic Materia Medica and Repertory have been combined for thorough understanding of the topic.

Cyrus Maxwell Boger was born on May 13, 1861 in western Pennsylvania, the son of Cyrus and Isabelle Maxwell Boger. He received his elementary education in the public schools of Lebanon, Pa., then graduated in pharmacy from the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and later in medicine from Hahnemann Medical College of Philadelphia. He settled in Parkersburg, W. Va., in 1888 where a long and very large practise was his, patients consulting him from neighboring states and from distant states and countries. His ambition was to devote all his time to teaching and writing but he never reached the point of giving up his practise. However, he frequently lectured before scientific audiences at the Pulte Medical College in Cincinnati and was a teacher of philosophy, materia medica, and repertory study in the American Foundation for Homoeopathy Postgraduate School from 1924 until his death. Boger, who was a german scholar, brought Bœnninghausen’s Characteristics and Repertory into the English Language in 1905. He was married three times. A daughter of the first marriage died quite young. The second marriage brought him four sons and five daughters. His third wife, Anna M. Boger, was his secretary and constant helper. He died on September 2, 1935, aged 74, from food-poisoning after eating a tin of home-preserved tomatoes. He was a devoted follower of the Boenninghausen method of a repertory study, as all his published works show.
