By William Sharp

Book Overview

Tracts On Homeopathy (1854) is a book written by William Sharp that delves into the practice of homeopathy. This book is a collection of tracts that were originally published in a British journal titled The Lancet. In this book, Sharp presents his views on the principles of homeopathy and its effectiveness as a medical treatment.Sharp begins by providing a brief history of homeopathy and its founder, Samuel Hahnemann. He then goes on to explain the principles of homeopathy, which revolve around the idea that ""like cures like."" This means that a substance that causes symptoms in a healthy person can be used to cure those same symptoms in a sick person.The tracts in this book cover a range of topics related to homeopathy, including the use of homeopathic remedies in the treatment of cholera, the effectiveness of homeopathy in treating mental illnesses, and the controversy surrounding the practice of homeopathy.Sharp also addresses the criticisms that have been leveled against homeopathy, including the argument that homeopathic remedies are nothing more than placebos. He argues that there is scientific evidence to support the effectiveness of homeopathy and that it should be considered a legitimate medical practice.Overall, Tracts On Homeopathy (1854) provides a comprehensive overview of the principles and practice of homeopathy, as well as the controversies and criticisms surrounding this alternative form of medicine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
