Excerpt from Organon of the Rational Art of Healing
The original suggestion that Hahnemann's Organon was worthy of a place in Everyman's Library came from the late Mr. James Speirs, and was supported by the British Homoeopathic Association, of whose Council Mr. Speirs was a member. Mr. J.M. Dent looked favourably on the proposal, but was naturally anxious to make clear that the Organon is put forward here as a piece of history rather than as a contribution to polemics. For this reason the original edition of 1810 was selected for presentation, as it both constitutes a landmark in medical history and is less controversial than the later editions. The name of Robert Dudgeon is inevitably bound up with the rendering of Hahnemann's works into English, but inasmuch as Dr. Dudgeon worked from the latest and fullest edition, another translator had to be sought for this, the original edition. The association of Dr. Dudgeon with Hahnemann is maintained, however, in Part II of this volume, for the translations of the essays contained therein are from his pen.
