This book is concerned with the Similia principle, the unquestionable cornerstone of homeopathy. It is a compilation of certain overlapping research findings by the authors which address the biological capacity to maintain homeostasis. The data do not challenge hypotheses held currently by the scientific community but rather extend them.
A substantial body of experimental evidence has been obtained utilizing 'in vitro' cell research according to accepted methodologies codified by conventional science. The results can only be interpreted according to the paradigms used for any other subject of investigation.
The comprehensive study of the Similia principle includes several steps beginning with the functioning of homeostatic systems and ending with an analysis of the pharmacological activity of molecular homeopathic solutions. This monograph addresses the questions and answers discovered during our journey. This will allow the reader to identify with our logic and protocol.
This monograph has mainly been written for physicians, both homeopathic and allopathic. Homeopathic physicians will enjoy its more thorough investigation into the biological basis of the therapeutic system that they have adopted. Allopathic physicians may find the monograph useful as an initial window into homeopathy viewed not as alternative, but rather a perspective which, at least in many respects, is consistent with the tenets of contemporary biomedicine.
