Homeopathy in Theory and practice

Greetings

It is wards round , at least, for me.

If members care to follow Dr. Borland 's clinical rounds, I am sure you will pick up many valuable pointers from this great teacher in his book,

' Homeopathy in Theory and Practice '.


PREFACE

Routine pathological low potency prescribing was used until the advent of Dr. Tyler, Sir John Weir and Dr. Borland. Sir John and Dr. Borland had studied in America under Kent and came back to revolutionize the pradtice of Homoeopathy here. They started the post-graduate lectures and the finding of the simillimum together with the high potency method and the single dose prescribing.

The spread of Homoeopathy has always been difficult. In the old days it was largely due to the prejudice and active antagonism of the medical profession as a whole. This grows less and less. To-day the main obstacle is modern medicine with all its spectacular chemical, physiological and pathological data and dramatic results obtained by the recently discovered drugs, the sulphonamides, penicillin, streptomycin etc. Medicals find it difficult to believe that we have a better method and equally dramatic and very often more lasting results. However, we have more entries for our post-graduate course than ever before and more patients demanding Homoeopathy.

It is a great pleasure to us to have the paper 'Homoeopathy in Theory and Practice' given by Dr. Bor­land, as he has essentially been one of the chief teachers of our method of what we consider to be Hahnemannian Homoeopathy.
