    Alfa & Omega of Kent repertory is a term used to describe the first and the last chapters of the repertory of James Tyler Kent, a prominent homeopath and author of one of the most widely used repertories in homeopathy. The first chapter is called “Mind” and it contains the rubrics related to the mental and emotional symptoms of the patients. The last chapter is called “Generalities” and it contains the rubrics related to the general symptoms and modalities of the patients. These two chapters are considered to be very important and comprehensive in covering the totality of symptoms and finding the most suitable remedy for each case. Some homeopaths prefer to use only these two chapters for repertorization, while others use them as a starting point and then refer to other chapters as well.

    1. The philosophy of deductive logic is the background of Kent’s Repertory from general to particular.
    2. Being a follower of Hahnemannian Homoeopathy Kent felt that the logic of the Homoeopathic system was not strictly followed in finding out of similimum from the repertories available in his time. A master of Materia Medica he noticed that particulars do not always fall in line with general and therefore severely criticized the faulty method of giving credence to parts and over-generalized the symptoms.
    3. Man is prior to the organ, man is the will and the understanding and the house where he lives in, is his body.
    4. Generals are dealt with in depth followed by particulars and minute particulars. Here unlike Boenninghausen’s Repertory, symptoms are studied under broad general rubrics followed by sub-rubrics and sub-subrubrics going towards progressive differentiation.
    5. In The construction of his Repertory he has evaluated drugs in three grades making comparison easier:
    a) 3 marks- First grade- Felt strongly by all or majority of provers- confirmed on reproving and verified in clinical practice.
    b) 2 marks- Second grade- brought out by a few provers and occasionally verified.
    c) 1 mark- Third grade- brought by Prover now and then, but verified clinically.
    6. The Repertory contains rubrics arranged in alphabetical order, from general to particulars.
    7. Cross references and similars have been inserted whenever it was thought they would be needed.
    8. Evolution of symptoms: Kent has classified the symptoms into three main categories; General, common, and particular.
