'The Organon of the Medical Art' is the indispensable source of teachings of Dr. Samuel Hahnemann which forms the basis of homeopathy.

The comprehensive text is divided into chapters and sections along with side headings and editorial footnotes which provides focus for our thoughts. This translation is as comprehensive and accessible as possible. It conveys more of Hahnemann's meaning then ever before preserving the primary sense of his words. The glossary has definitions of medical terms used in the Organon as well as translation notes on specific words which will enable readers to understand what Hahnemann meant instead of guessing and exact English word for the German word. The names of medicines and medicinal substances, whether Latin or common, appear in roman type and not italics since Hahemann used the common and the Latin names both in reference to unpotentised substances as well as to potentised medicines. This translation and adaptation substances as has been prepared with care and precision and it throws light on our high mission or restoring the sick to health.
