Review by Jane Ray from 'Homeopathy in Practice' Journal, Winter 2021/2022 edition. 

This informative gem of a book by avid traveller and experienced homeopathy, Richard Pitt, makes a terrific gift for anyone who can travel these days as it covers pretty much every malady you can think of. Much of the information concerns indicated remedies for certain states or conditions we know well as homeopaths. However, it also includes herbal medicine and common sense tips on staying safe while travelling, as well as information at the end of the book on lesser-known diseases and symptoms.
A glance at the contents of this book suggests that it's written by an experienced traveller, and Richard's biography at the back of the book confirms this.
Richard has collated an incredible amount of information into a small handy tome. It contains simple-to-follow advice on therapeutic treatments and indicated remedies for everything from the more common issues like allergies through to dealing with lice / bed bugs, It also covers more serious conditions such as tropical diseases and menopause, as well as how to deal with emergencies and disasters.
There is an excellent table of contents, which makes it super easy to locate information on both common and lesser-known conditions, as well as chapters on, for example, skin or digestive conditions.
Some of the information in the book was new to me. For example, although I'm aware of the history of homeopathy and its influence in America, I didn't know it was so popular as early as the 1800s.
Richard also writes about homeopathy's successful use in epidemics, especially under US President Harding in 1922, whose father was a homeopathic physician in the American Civil War and who hosted a convention of homeopaths at the White House, no less!
There's nothing I don't like about the book. For experienced practitioners such as myself it still delivers new information on the history of homeopathy, certain diseases and other treatments / remedies for acute / emergency conditions whilst travelling.
For anyone not familiar with homeopathy, there's an excellent short introduction on such topics as how to take homeopathic remedies, how to keep them safe, and explanations about when and how to give different potencies, the difference in homeopathic dilutions, water dosing with limited remedies, and so on.
It is great, therefore, for newbies to natural medicine or for homeopathic students, friends or clients for travelling. In fact, it's one of the best mini travel health books I've ever come across.
At the end of the book there is a handy list of conditions making it easy to locate the information you need, especially in an emergency. Richard has also added COVID-19 advice with a handy list of useful supplements, referring back to the section on coughs and colds for possible indicated remedies.
I found the extensive information in an easy-to-read format enlightening on various lesser - as well as wider-known diseases and conditions, including information about the best treatments for them. I definitely recommend this book for all travellers, especially those going off the beaten track.
This pocket-size book would be a great gift for friends, or for clients who travel widely, or as an easy-to-read family natural travel remedy guide that takes up little space yet contains a huge amount of interesting information.
