The Chronic Diseases, Their Specific Nature and Homeopathic Treatment, Vol. 4: Anti-Psoric Remedies (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Chronic Diseases, Their Specific Nature and Homeopathic Treatment, Vol. 4: Anti-Psoric RemediesPossessed by these convictions, it is quite natural that I should never have attempted to explain how diseases can be cured by medicines, the pathogenetic symptoms of which are similar to those of the disease. I have furnished a conjecture relative to that matter, without wishing it to be considered an explanation. Such an explanation is not necessary. It simply behoves us to apply the law like cures like correctly and successfully, and not to boast with abstract explanations, in spite of which the patient may remain uncured. Indulging foolish hypothe~ ses is all that the so-called physicians of the Old School have accomplished up to this moment. These physicians would not have hesitated to reject the doctrines of homoeo pathy, which however teach the only true method of cure, simply because my explanation of the modus operandi of homeopathic agents was not satisfactory.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
