Excerpt From History Of Homoeopathy, Its Origin; Its Conflicts: With An Appendix On The Present State Of University Medicine He History Of Homoeopathy Is The Indictment Of The Medical Profession. A Physician Distinguished Above His Fellows For His Services To Medicine, Chemistry And Pharmacology, Endowed With Quite A Phenomenal Talent For Ancient And Modern Languages, And Well Read In All The Medical Lore Of Past Times, After Mature Thought And At A Ripe Age, Announces To The Profession That, As The Result Of Years Of Arduous Experiment, Investigation And Reection, He Believes He Has Discovered A Therapeutic Rule Which Will Enable Us To Find The Remedies For Diseases With Greater Certainty And Precision Than Can Be Effected By Any Of The Methods Hitherto Taught. The Reception Which This Announcement Met With, And Which Was Given To All HahnemannS Subsequent Efforts To Give Certainty And Scientific Accuracy To Therapeutics, Is Described In The Following Pages, And Forms One Of The Most Melan Choly And Deplorable Episodes In The History Of Medicine. Homoeopathy Having Had Its Origin In Germany, And Its Founder Having Spent His Long Life Chiey In That Country, It Is Natural To Expect That The Historical Events Of Homoeopathy Have Occurred Chiey, At All Events Primarily, In Germany. HahnemannS Active Life Was Carried On In Germany, And His Works Were Written In German Or In Latin, Which In His Early Days Was The Language Often Employed By Medical And Scientific Authors.
