Homeopathy - The Undiluted Facts
by Edzard ErnstThis book traces the genesis, principles and practice of homeopathy, and discusses the reasons for its enduring popularity. Two hundred years ago, medicine had little to offer except blood letting and the administration of violent purgatives - practices which shortened the course of illness by hastening the death of the patient. Largely in reaction to what he correctly saw as the brutality and ineffectiveness of the medicine of his day, the eighteenth century German physician Samuel Hahnemann developed a system of therapeutics that he termed homeopathy. Ironically, while modern medicine has changed beyond recognition, homeopathy, with its roots in alchemy and metaphysics, continues to be practiced precisely as it was in Hahnemann's day. Readers of this book will enjoy the story of homeopathy and its almost magical attraction, whilst learning much from the authors' rational and scientific discussion of the biological, chemical and psychological questions that this treatment raises.

Homeopathy for Today’s World: Discovering Your Animal, Mineral, or Plant Nature
by Dr Rajan SankaranDiscover the “inner song” that triggers your ailments and underlies your fundamental nature and response to stress • Reveals the 7 levels of experience and how to apply them to reach the core experience behind our physical and mental symptoms • Explains how to decode the ways we describe our pain and emotions to determine what animal, plant, or mineral is “singing” within • Shows how awareness of the “inner song” can reduce its negative impact on our emotions, dreams, ambitions, careers, and relationships The most important development in homeopathy since its discovery in the late 18th century by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, the Sensation Method of diagnosis developed by Dr. Rajan Sankaran explains that our experience and perceptions of life’s stresses are shaped by an inner pattern, or “song,” connected to one of the three kingdoms in nature--animal, plant, or mineral. Revealing itself as a constant underlying sensation felt in both the mind and the body and expressed through illness and chronic ailments, this inner song of reoccurring reactive patterns--be it that of a competitive lion, a sensitive daisy, or structured phosphorus--drives our emotions, dreams, ambitions, careers, and relationships and is the underlying factor behind why stress affects each of us so differently. Explaining that there are 7 levels to our experiences, Dr. Sankaran provides techniques to decode the words and gestures we use to describe our pain, emotions, and health conditions, allowing us to probe deeper into our experiences of stress and illness to determine what animal, plant, or mineral is “singing” within us. Showing how this core identity can be used by homeopathic physicians to treat our problems at their source, he reveals how becoming aware of our inner song can reduce the intensity of its negative effects, leading to less stress, better health, and more harmony in our lives.
Homeopathy: An Illusion of Effectiveness
by Dinesh Kumar JainTaking a critical view, Homeopathy: An Illusion of Effectiveness is a treasure trove of information regarding the homeopathic system of medicine, reasoning through various unanswered questions concerning its principles and the scientific basis of its remedies. This book posits that the principles of homeopathy are inaccurate and homeopathic drugs have no therapeutic utility. Features: • Includes studies, observations, analysis, and conclusions of Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy • Proves that principles of homeopathy are scientifically baseless and homeopathic drugs have no therapeutic effect • Provides a platform for creative and rational thinking • Promotes evidence-based medicine This book is the only one of its kind, explaining how Hahnemann framed the laws of this therapeutic system inaccurately due to lack of knowledge. At present, homeopathy is misleading the public and increasing morbidity and mortality because it is interfering with the application of modern medical science. This book will be useful in the medical community as well as the non-medical community, dispelling several myths associated with homeopathy by developing a rational approach based on scientific facts.
