Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Homoeopathy, What Is It?: A Statement and Review of Its Doctrines and Practice
Cardanus likewise doubted the maxim of Galen. But Basilius Valentinus is more explicit, and says, that like cures like, but that contraria do not cure.
Other writers have explained the operations of specific remedies on the same ground of similarity.
Stoerk has gone further in this than any other writer before him. He suggests with a certain timidity that stramonium might cure derangement of the mind, for the reason that it deranges the reason of healthy persons, interrupts the ideas, modifies the perceptive and functionary powers of the senses. -rau's Organon, p. 31.
