INTRODUCTION.

In the spring of 1858, there was dissatisfaction expressed by a large number of homeopathic physicians in the US that the North American Journal of Homoeopathy (the only professional homeopathic periodical at the time, in the US) was approving and publishing contributions which were not in line with the idea of homeopathy as taught by Hahnemann. The situation was remedied by the foundation of the American Homeopathic Review whose editors proposed to “issuing one that should advocate a strict adherence to the homoeopathic law, although acknowledging the right of every physician to prescribe the remedies in such quantities as his experience or judgment dictated.”

In October 1858, the first number of the Review appeared under the auspices of R. G. Perkins and H. M. Smith as editors and proprietors. Themselves unknown to the homoeopathic profession, the editors sought and received the literary assistance of the more noted of homeopathic physicians, as E. Bayard, J. P. Dake, C. Dunham, B. Fincke, L. Hallock, C. Hering, B. F. Joslin, B. F. Joslin, Jr., E. M. Kellogg, A. Lippe, R. Ludlam, E. E. Marcy, H. D. Paine, M. J. Rhees, G. Shipman, F. Vanderburgh, P. P. Wells and others. Also included were translations of the important articles by C. von Boenninghausen and other selected articles appearing in the German homeopathic journal Allgemeine Homoeopatische Zeitung.

Almost all of the articles from all the issued numbers were included in this selection, with the exception of most of the “Transactions of homeopathic societies” which were generally omitted (usually containing information like “Dr. XY presented a paper on this and that” with no particulars provided), unless containing some useful information for a reader of our times. All the articles contain annotations indicating the author (if known), the exact source in the original AHR journal, the description and other information useful for locating articles dealing with certain topics, remedies, by specific authors etc.

The articles in the original journal were often published in several parts, sometimes spanning through several numbers of the journal – these parts were joined into a single article. The articles were then subjected to proofreading, with the aim of correcting both the errors introduced during the OCR process and those present in the original texts. To improve the search, certain words were edited into their more modern form e.g. “diarrhea” in place “diarrhoea”, “headache” instead of “head-ache” etc.

The quality of the articles is generally very high and the overall tone of the periodical intends to promote strict adherence to the homeopathic law as taught by Hahnemann. The articles cover all kinds of topics – homeopathic philosophy, original provings, clinical cases, various debates on then-and-now-current topics such as alternation of the remedies, use of high/low potencies, prescription strategies, book reviews and other interesting subjects. We feel that modern homeopathy has been cut off from its roots and this selection of articles aims to provide means of reconnecting these severed threads.

A summary of what is included:

  • contains all six volumes of The American Homoeopathic Review (all issues)
  • more than 4000 standard pages of text
  • over 400 selected articles with annotations
  • true Hahnemannian classical homeopathy – homeopathic philosophy, original provings, clinical cases, debates, book reviews

These articles are also available as a Materia Medica Pack for Mercurius homeopathic software, see www.homeopathy.net

You can also download an e-book version in .mobi format (for Amazon Kindle and similar devices).
