DARE TO DIFFER A DOCTOR'S QUEST FOR A GENTLE CURE

A compelling account of a woman who graduates with honours from a premier

medical school in Delhi and enters the world of medicine, convinced about the

efficacy of the allopathic system of treatment. But along the way circumstances

and incidents drive her to do a rethink and she becomes a flagbearer for an

alternate system of treating patients-homeopathy.

A postgraduate of the latter half of the twentieth century, an era when modern

medicine, or allopathy, was growing by leaps and bounds, Dr Kusum Chand was

concerned by the weaknesses she could discern in the system. So she embarked

on years of learning and experimentation with homeopathy. It took her more

than two decades to personally validate its effectiveness, a period when she

became popular as a 'two prescriptions doctor'. As she puts it, allopathy and

homeopathy are like two colours of the spectrum, blue and yellow, good by

themselves. But when they come together, a new colour-green-is formed,

which denotes good health and wellness. The book includes several case studies

which support her theories.

This lucid and riveting account is as engrossing for the lay reader as it is

informative for those in the medical profession. Dare to Differ is certain to

resonate with people across the globe looking for validated work on a gentler

system of healing
