Summary
While case-taking in homeopathy began as a drive to gather information, it has become
much more. Augmented by skills from other disciplines, case-taking in contemporary
homeopathy now emphasises sophisticated techniques borrowed from other disciplines.
Understanding the historical development of this change and being able to identify the
features in the landscape of case-taking assists students, graduates and practitioners
identify their strengths and weaknesses, and tailor their skills for better results.
