Excerpt from Organon of Medicine
Physicians are my brethren; I have nothing against them personally. The medical art is my subject.
I have to inquire whether medicine as hitherto taught has, in all its parts, been merely developed out of the heads, the self-deception and the caprice of its professors, or whether it has been derived from nature.

Excerpt from Organon of Medicine
In this new edition of my translation of the Organon I have completely revised the text, in order to make it a still more exact reproduction of the original. In the Appendix I have given all the more important variations of the previous editions. I have also indicated the corresponding views as set forth in the Essay on a New Principle and the Medicine of Experience, both of which essays may be regarded as the precursor of the Organon. I have added Hahnemann's later opinions on several subjects treated of in this work. In the growth of such a complex thing as a new system of medicine, it was inevitable that there should be considerable alterations and improvements effected in the course of forty-eight years, the time occupied by Hahnemann in the elaboration of his novel doctrine and practice. His first idea of the homoeopathic rule of practice occurred to him while translating Cullen's Materia Medica in 1790. The Essay on a New Principle in which he propounded the homoeopathic therapeutic rule, as yet believed by him to be of only "partial application," viz. to some chronic diseases, was published in 1796. Nine years after this, viz. in 1805, in the Medicine of Experience, he enunciated the rule with no such limitations of its applicability. This essay contains much of what we find in the first and later editions of the Organon. The first edition of this latter work appeared in 1810. The second edition, differing very considerably from the first, was published in 1819. The third edition, which hardly differed at all from the previous one, appeared in 1824.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the author's complete system of homeopathy, a form of alternative medicine that uses highly diluted substances, and their effects on healthy individuals, to determine the most appropriate treatment for various ailments. Homeopathy was developed by the author over the course of nearly fifty years. The author begins with an overview of the history of medicine and argues that traditional approaches have been largely ineffective. He then presents his own system, which he claims is based on the principle of "like cures like." The author provides detailed instructions on how to select and administer homeopathic remedies, and includes a materia medica of over 650 substances. He also discusses the use of homeopathy in the treatment of chronic diseases. The author's system of homeopathy has been controversial since its inception, but it has also gained a significant following. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in learning more about homeopathy. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
