Tomando como base el principio que rige la homeopatía: "lo similar se cura con lo similar", el doctor Wiesenauer, especialista en medicina general, homeopatía y medicinas naturales, presenta una selección de la gran variedad de remedios homeopáticos existentes. Los remedios se presentan ordenados según el campo de aplicación (desde los pies hasta la cabeza), explicando la limitación a las dolencias y trastornos que pueden ser tratados de forma efectiva con remedios homeopáticos. El lector también obtendrá información sobre la exacta dosificación de los remedios y sobre el contenido clásico de un botiquín casero. Un detallado registro, que explica la preparación de los diferentes remedios, pone punto final al libro.

En el siglo XIX, un joven y apuesto arquitecto español, viaja de España a un pueblo de Veracruz, para reclamar una propiedad de sus ancestros, pero se enamora de una hermosa lugareña, con la que vive un amor inconmensurable. El producto de su amor furtivo, fuera del matrimonio, es arrancado de los brazos de su madre con una deleznable mentira, para obsequiarlo a una yerbera llamada Manuela, y así esconder la deshonra de la familia, Un abominable crimen por el robo de unas perlas, y que nunca se esclarece sirve para descargar el odio del ofendido padre de la joven hacia el arquitecto; lo hace parecer culpable y lo encierran prisión bajo un nombre falso. El martirio por el que pasa en su encierro, la búsqueda incansable de su familia para dar con su paradero; su amada con el corazón de hecho que tampoco deja de buscarlos a él y a su hijo; la yerbera que descubre en su hijo adoptivo su extraordinario don, que utiliza en sus remedios con asombrosos resultados, y la llevan a la fama; el reencuentro del hijo con su madre; la amistad que surge entre ambas mujeres; llenan esta historia de aventuras, de misterio, de magia y de amor, con un final estremecedor.
