"In this book Julian Carlyon describes the philosophy and approach that lie at the heart of homeopathy. He sets homeopathy in its true place as a system of medicine that seeks to heal the fractured wholeness that we experience as the suffering of body and soul.

Homeopathy is rooted in ideas concerning life and healing that have been evolving for centuries - ideas that found expression through physicians, philosophers and alchemists known and unknown; through sixteenth century alchemist and physician Paracelsus, through the originator of homeopathy, Samuel Hahnemann, and through Swiss psychologist C.G.Jung, to name but a few. In this book the threads of ancient tradition, Hahnemannian homeopathy, and transpersonal psychology are gathered together, along with the ideas emerging through the work of modern homeopaths such as Rajan Sankaran and Jan Scholten, and woven into a single whole which offers a vision of homeopathy for the modern world.

Julian writes for students and practitioners of homeopathy, as well as all those who seek a deeper understanding of the roots of suffering in themselves and others. He sets the homeopathic understanding of disease, and its accompanying simple, yet profound, solution within the world of the twenty-first century.

This book is a scholarly work that draws together different threads of Homeopathic thinking with an understanding of disease processes that is both readable and informative"
