Publisher's Synopsis
Remarks On The Abracadabra Of The Nineteenth Century: Or On Samuel Hahnemann�������s Homeopathic Medicine (1835) is a book written by William Leo-Wolf that provides a critical analysis of homeopathic medicine as developed by Samuel Hahnemann. The book was published in 1835 and is a response to Hahnemann's work, Organon of the Healing Art, which introduced the concept of homeopathy.Leo-Wolf argues that homeopathic medicine is based on flawed principles and that its effectiveness is largely due to the placebo effect. He criticizes Hahnemann's use of dilution, which involves repeatedly diluting a substance until it is no longer present in the final product, and argues that this process renders the medicine ineffective.The book also discusses the history of medicine and the development of different medical practices. Leo-Wolf argues that homeopathy is a product of the superstitions and beliefs of the time and that it does not have a scientific basis.Overall, Remarks On The Abracadabra Of The Nineteenth Century: Or On Samuel Hahnemann�������s Homeopathic Medicine is a critical analysis of homeopathic medicine that challenges its effectiveness and scientific basis. It provides a historical perspective on the development of medical practices and offers a counterpoint to the ideas presented by Hahnemann.With Particular Reference To Constantine Hering�������s Concise View Of The Rise And Progress Of Homeopathic Medicine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
