Synthesis Adonis highlights
Adonis is a major step forward, offering the fruits of over 12 years work of our team!
In the video above, Dr Frederik Schroyens highlights the choices that have been made during the editing work for Synthesis Adonis.
A wealth of information has been added, many corrections have been executed and some innovative new ideas are included in this version.

Read the Foreword to Synthesis Adonis by Dr. Farokh Master HERE.
Clinical additions in Adonis
- Many additions have been made based largely on the authority and experience of three clinical giants (they account for 49,545 additions):
- Farokh Master (India)
- Massimo Mangialavori (Italy)
- Filip Degroote (Belgium)
- All these additions end with the number 0 (zero), so they can be easily recognized.
Contemporary Provings in Adonis
- A big effort has been made to repertorize provings, including no fewer than 230 provings.
- Many of these provings offer information on new substances.

Adonis in a nutshell
The repertory views have been thoroughly reviewed and completed with the new remedies and authors.
There are some new repertory views: "Only remedies", "Only families", "Only all provings", "Only clinical verification" and "Reliable sources (T. Galic)".
In all chapters, many pathological rubrics have been added, suggesting inspiration for remedies in case of a given pathology.
New rubrics in contemporary language have been added.
They suggest remedies based on recent provings and clinical experience where these words were used. The goal is to bring the language of the repertory closer to the language of today’s patients, if appropriate rubrics did not yet exist.
To many rubrics, families have been added (introducing 202 families, 0,7 % of Adonis).
When looking at such a rubric, the homeopath is reminded of the remedies as well as of the families that may apply. Different ways to visualize the rubric allow flexibility while working. All families end with an asterisk (e.g. solanac*), so they can be easily recognized.
Updated Veterinary version in Synthesis Adonis.
The veterinary information has been updated by Marc Bär (Switzerland) and his team and contains mostly new additions and new symptoms. Veterinary concepts and tags facilitate access to what is highly relevant information for veterinarians.
At the end of Synthesis Adonis, we provide an empty “Personal chapter”, where remedies and symptoms can be added on the fly.

Praise for Synthesis Adonis
I have been working with Synthesis repertory for the past two decades, and I have been actively associated as a core team member under the guardianship of Dr. Frederik Schroyens. In the last two decades, I started examining my clinical case record forms and building up interesting clinical rubrics and medical syndromes. I have added more than 30-40 Jungian rubrics and made the chapter of mind quite rich. After running a department of palliative oncology in Mumbai for the last many years, I was able to gather some useful rubrics in the section on cancer. Again, from the case records of cured patients, I upgraded the chapter on Lab Investigations. All this is now incorporated in the wonderful version, now known as Adonis. I am delighted that Dr. Frederik Schroyens incorporated all my additions in the book.
Dr. Farokh J. Master, India, March 25, 2022
Watch Farokh's Webinar to discover the enormous work he has put into converting his clinical experience into repertorial cues for Adonis!
I am very excited about Adonis, which has become my repertory. Most of Massimo's additions and so many new remedies. It enabled me to prescribe Passer domesticus for the first time. At last, even the Lanthanides! Mineral, plant and animal family analysis made easy. This has been a huge task superbly accomplished. Thank you.
Geoff Johnson, UK, June 21, 2022
I have started using Adonis, mostly for research purposes but also for a few selected patients, and I must say I am quite impressed and satisfied with it!
Dr Joe Rozencwajg, New Zealand, June 5, 2022
Working with [Adonis] for a week on it now. A great enhancement/upgrade! Your hard work is deeply appreciated!
Wiet Van Helmond, The Netherlands, June 5, 2022
What a feast is Adonis!
Véronique Piales, France, May 31, 2022
