Homeopathy: An Illusion of Effectiveness
by Dinesh Kumar JainTaking a critical view, Homeopathy: An Illusion of Effectiveness is a treasure trove of information regarding the homeopathic system of medicine, reasoning through various unanswered questions concerning its principles and the scientific basis of its remedies. This book posits that the principles of homeopathy are inaccurate and homeopathic drugs have no therapeutic utility. Features: • Includes studies, observations, analysis, and conclusions of Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy • Proves that principles of homeopathy are scientifically baseless and homeopathic drugs have no therapeutic effect • Provides a platform for creative and rational thinking • Promotes evidence-based medicine This book is the only one of its kind, explaining how Hahnemann framed the laws of this therapeutic system inaccurately due to lack of knowledge.

Homoeopathy And Immunization (Concise Guide To Homoeopathy Ser. #No.1)
by Leslie J SpeightThe increasing public awareness of the dangers associated with some immunizations is arousing great apprehension in many parents. They are questioning the long term effects in spite of the widely recommended procedures by health authorities and doctors.Homoeopathy and Immunization explains the argument against immunization, pointing out the ill effects and dangers, and offers safe homoeopathic solutions that use the body's built-in immunity system, strengthened by good food and satisfactory living conditions. It can play an important role in resisting any epidemic and, in fact, any disease which might attack those who ignore these important factors.Dr. A. Pulford wrote 'No disease will arise without an existing predisposition to that disease. It is the absence of the predisposition to any particular disease that makes us immune to it. Homoeopathy alone is capable of removing these predispositions.'

Homöopathie neu gedacht: Was Patienten wirklich hilft
by Natalie GramsDer Versuch eines BrückenschlagsDieses viel diskutierte Buch hat die Debatte um die Homöopathie neu belebt. Die nun vorliegende Taschenbuchausgabe, in der auch die Erfahrungen der Autorin nach der Erstveröffentlichung Niederschlag gefunden haben, wird unentbehrlich bleiben für die weitere Diskussion.Die Homöopathie ist über 200 Jahre alt und erfährt auch heute noch einen ungebrochenen Zustrom. Viele Patienten und Therapeuten schwören auf die „alternative Heilmethode“, die mittlerweile auch von vielen Krankenkassen erstattet wird. Kritikern erscheint dies völlig unverständlich – ist für sie doch längst klar, dass die Homöopathie hoffnungslos unwissenschaftlich ist und allenfalls einen Placebo-Effekt zu bieten hat. Die Positionen von Befürwortern und Gegnern scheinen dabei ebenso unverrückbar wie unvereinbar. Das Buch beantwortet spannende Fragen: Was bleibt in einer Medizin des 21. Jahrhunderts übrig von dem Gedankengebäude der Homöopathie? Wie wirkt sie wirklich? Welche der ursprünglichen Theorien können wir auch heute noch guten Gewissens anwenden und zum Nutzen von Patienten und Gesundheitssystem einsetzen? Wo aber hat die Homöopathie Grenzen und muss in der Tat kritisch betrachtet und bewertet werden? Die Autorin hat sich über Jahre mit den Kritikpunkten auseinandergesetzt, nimmt aber gleichzeitig auch die Wünsche und Sorgen der Patienten ernst, die sich in der konventionellen Medizin oft nur unzureichend versorgt fühlen. Ihr Buch versucht einen (überfälligen) Brückenschlag zwischen zwei traditionell verfeindeten Lagern.Die AutorinNatalie Grams ist Ärztin, Autorin und Leiterin des Informations-Netzwerks Homöopathie. Ihr Buch und ihre kritische Einschätzung der Homöopathie haben ihr zahlreiche Interviews beschert und ein neues Nachdenken über diese Heilmethode befördert.

Honesty: The Philosophy and Psychology of a Neglected Virtue
by Christian B. MillerHonesty is an important virtue. Parents want to develop it in their children. Close relationships depend upon it. Employers value it in their employees. Surprisingly, however, philosophers have said very little about the virtue of honesty over the past fifty years. In this book, Christian B. Miller aims to draw much greater attention to this neglected virtue. The first part of the book looks at the concept of honesty. It takes up questions such as: What does honesty involve? What are the motives of an honest person? How does practical wisdom relate to honesty? Miller explores what connects the many sides of honesty, including not lying, not stealing, not breaking promises, not misleading others, and not cheating. He argues that the honest person reliably does not intentionally distort the facts as she takes them to be. Miller then examines the empirical psychology of honesty. He takes up the question of whether most people are honest, dishonest, or somewhere in between. Drawing extensively on recent studies of cheating and lying, the model Miller articulates ultimately implies that most of us have a long way to go to reach an honest character. Honesty: The Philosophy and Psychology of a Neglected Virtue provides both a richer understanding of what our character looks like, as well as what the goal of being an honest person actually involves. Miller then leaves it up to us to decide if we want to take steps to shrink the character gap between the two.
