The Lesser Writings of Samuel Hahnemann

The Lesser Writings of Samuel Hahnemann, collected and translated by R. E. Dudgeon, was published in 1852. This compilation of essays and other writings is an excellent chronicle of the development of Hahnemann’s thought, from conventional doctor to homeopathic physician. Included within is "Essay on a New Curative Principle for Ascertaining the Curative Power of Drugs", Hahnemann’s essay that first defined homeopathy. Also included is the "Medicine of Experience", the predecessor to the Organon. These and the other works included provide a clear picture of the evolution of homeopathy.
