A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In this new edition of my translation of theO rganon 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 theE ssay on aN ew Principle and theM edicine of Experience, both of which essays may be regarded as the precursor of theO rganon. I have added Hahnemann slater 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 eflfected in the course of forty-eignt 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 sM ateria Medica in 1790. The Essay on aN ew 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 theM edicine 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 theO rganon. 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.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
