Organon Of The Rational Art Of Healing

Excerpt from Organon of the Rational Art of Healing The original suggestion that Hahnemann's Organon was worthy of a place in Everyman's Library came from the late Mr. James Speirs, and was supported by the British Homoeopathic Association, of whose Council Mr. Speirs was a member. Mr. J.M. Dent looked favourably on the proposal, but was naturally anxious to make clear that the Organon is put forward here as a piece of history rather than as a contribution to polemics. For this reason the original edition of 1810 was selected for presentation, as it both constitutes a landmark in medical history and is less controversial than the later editions. The name of Robert Dudgeon is inevitably bound up with the rendering of Hahnemann's works into English, but inasmuch as Dr. Dudgeon worked from the latest and fullest edition, another translator had to be sought for this, the original edition. The association of Dr. Dudgeon with Hahnemann is maintained, however, in Part II of this volume, for the translations of the essays contained therein are from his pen.

Old Times in Oildom, published in 1911 by the Derrick Publishing Company of Oil City, Pennsylvania, contains the memoirs and stories of George W. Brown, who was deeply involved in the oil business in Pennsylvania in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Brown's anecdotes show him to be a witness to times of profound change in the industrial and economic landscapes of Pennsylvania's oil regions, when technology rapidly developed and oil wells sprang up across the northern part of the state, irrevocably altering both the land itself and the communities living on it. Brown provides a detailed account of what life was like in the "oildom" of nineteenth-century Pennsylvania from the striking of the first oil well, the famous Drake Well in Titusville, to the solidification of the industry in the early twentieth century. In addition to relating stories from his own life, Brown narrates those of his prominent contemporaries and includes a series of biographical sketches of men who played important roles in the Pennsylvania oil industry.
