Organon of the Medical Art
A new translation of the Organon has been released.  This book contains not only a new translation, but also a new format, complete with table of contents, index, and glossary, making the Organon easier to use and understand than ever before.O'Reilly's adaptation of the Organon brings much more meaning to light.  One problem with previous translations is that the reader could never be sure how accurately key words were translated and what exactly Hahnemann meant by them. To address this problem, O'Reilly provides a glossary of terms in which the German word is given along with the definition that applies to Hahnemann's usage.Even before its publication, it has begun to garner rave reviews. George Vithoulkas, director or the International Academy of Classical Homeopathy, has described it as the best translation yet, and the most comprehensive and organized information about the Organon. --Resonance Magazine, September, 1996Magnificent. . .a truly impressive piece of scholarship. --Catherine R. Coulter, Author of Portraits of Homeopathic MedicinesThe Organon of the Medical Art is the cornerstone of homeopathy.  In it, Samuel Hahnemann takes us on a philosophical journey through the age-old questions of health, disease, and healing, speculates on the ideal system to achieve these ends, and describes the system he found which meets these criteria.  Along the way he answers most questions any homeopath could have.If one were stranded on a desert island with this book, one could develop the unique materia medica that wouold be found on the island, and learn how to apply these substances as healing agents.This is the translation we have all been waiting for. It was worth the wait and certainly worth the price. Steven Decker and Wenda Brewster O'Reilly have done a great service for the English speakers of homeopathy.  A new standard has been set. --Homeopathy Today, December, 1996
