This is a terrible shame as many of our best homeopathic books are going out of print and disappearing.
Beaconsfield paperback from 2000. 
Split into three sections : Doctrine, Clinical Aspects and lastly Materia Medica.
Dr Paschero, an Argentinian, was a close student of Grimmer (who took over Dr Kent's practice after his death). The writings come originally from 1943 to 1966. Highly recommended.
The real thing as Paschero was a highly experienced prescriber.

Review by Francis Treuherz:
(Reprinted with permission of The Society of Homeopaths,  'The Homeopath' Journal, Spring 2001 edition) 

This is the book l wish I had on my desk when I was a student, and one we all need to read from time to time when our enthusiasm for homeopathy wanes, and we are wondering about the latest speculative guru. Paschero is down to earth and practical, yet on a higher plane of philosophy than most. He writes of homeopathy as a formative process for him, of the development of Hahnemannian ideas of chronic disease, and seeing remedies as constitutional types. But is readable rather than dry; not only the style, but also each essay is self contained and short enough to hold the reader's attention.
The book is divided into 3 main parts which he calls Doctrine with 9 chapters, Clinical Aspects (7 chapters) and Materia Medica of 14 remedies plus 3 essays on materia medica. This book is of such quality that it is hard to pick out the best. I have chosen one chapter for the journal so that you can have a taste of the style. The second choice would have been Finding the Similimum, rejected only on the grounds of length. This contains an exposition of how to analyse and repertorise a case, with some stunning examples. It solves the question which bothers so many of us, which rubrics to choose.
The materia medica begins with an essay on how to study remedies, to read many sources of which he gives examples. He mentions the character and feel of a remedy and then proceeds to produce some wonderful vignettes as examples of what he means. Often there is something new for me like the extra sensory perceptions and dowsing abilities of Lachesis, or the boasting of Phosphorus.
This translation from the Spanish of the Argentine by Katherine Masfs reads as if it was an original, perhaps also because Paschero had studied the American classics and knows our style. Paschero was born in 1904, and in 1934 travelled to the USA where he met and studied with various homeo­pathic physicians, including William Griggs, Eugene Underhill, Julia Minerva Green, Elizabeth Wright Hubbard, Guy Beckley Stearns and AH Grimmer. Some of these illustrious teachers had studied with Kent, most were members of the International Hahnemannian Association, all kept the homeopathic flag waving after the main colleges closed. Paschero was lucky in that he had an apprenticeship with Grimmer. He then returned home and became himself a teacher and leader of the profession in his own land. This book is the culmination of his work over 5 decades, first published in 1983. What we have here is a transfusion of what we have learned to call classical pre­scribing methods, published as another modern classic text.
