Publisher's Synopsis
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. First proposed by German physician Samuel Hahnemann in 1796, homeopathy is a form of alternative medicine that uses highly diluted preparations as medicine. Aside from the preparations and tinctures, homeopathy also takes into account the patient's physical and psychological state. This book explores the concept of homeopathy and alternative medicines, the placebo effect, allopathic medicine, and specific remedies used in homeopathic care. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books.
