While most practitioners in the USA who wanted a small "Pocket Manual" often chose the Boericke work, many in the UK preferred the Phatak work. In a comparison between them one many find Phatak to be a bit more readable. Those who have used it say that the summaries he presents of the remedies contain useful details that are not found in Boericke's.
