Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Sources of the Homoeopathic Materia Medica: Three Lectures Delivered at the London Homoeopathic Hospital in January, 1877
You will notice that some of the symptoms of each drug are observations of others. This does not mean that Hahnemann had as yet any fellow-observers. The others are in every case authors from whose writings he has cited. The symptoms for which he himself vouches are such as had come under his own observation as effects of poisoning or excessive dosing, and (in far larger proportion) those which he had obtained by provings on himself and others. I have instituted experiments he writes in the preface in chief part on my own person, but also on some others whom I knew to be perfectly healthy and free from all perceptible disease.
