Comments by Dr. D.P. Rastogi.
If you look for a reliable and informative book on the subject of repertory which can be relied by a PG student as well as a UG student, this is the book.
In short, I can say that “no such book, complete in information and authentic at the same time, has appeared so far and therefore I recommend this to all students.”

Silent features
In this work post Kentian repertories are explained in details comparing to other works.
Evolution of Kent’s repertory is given by demonstrating repertories like Hering’s ,Lippe’s and Allen’s.

The entire works of individual authors are mentioned together- more useful to students and teachers.
The number of remedies in each repertory has been cross checked by the author but differs in other similar books.

Fever ,eye, rheumatism and noseode section in different repertories are compiled together
