Overview
"A combination of the 5th edition by Dudgeon (the 1893 revision) with the 6th edition by Boericke. Essentially, one can see the changes that Hahnemann made to the text of the 5th edition. An appendix outlines all the changes made from the first edition to 6th edition. A valuable study guide. Of all the published editions this remains the favourite, since it clearly shows the changes in Hahnemann's thinking as some paragraphs in the fifth edition were modified and others completely rewritten. This edition offers both versions interposed (""This paragraph was completely rewritten in the sixth...""). The combined fifth and sixth edition of Organon was typesetted around 100 years back. The modern reader finds it difficult to read and go through the book. For the past few years we were constantly requested by our beloved readers to redo this treasure in a manner which is consistent with modern books. To make the book user-friendly we have refurnished it. The positive changes we made are as follow: A new font has been used which is bigger in size and is a pleasure to read; Footnotes which were earlier given at the bottom and spread over different aphorisms were difficult to find and read. In this new book, we have incorporated them under the appropriate aphorisms at one place. This makes the reading and understanding of Organon more easy; A Word index of has been added at the end of the book which makes it very easy to find the required portion of the text."

Author Information
Samuel Hahnemann was the founder of Homoeopathy. He established the fundamental principles of the science and art of Homoeopathy. He is called the Father of Experimental Pharmacology because he was the first physician to prepare medicines in a specialized way; proving them on healthy human beings, to determine how the medicines acted to cure diseases. Before Hahnemann, medicines were given on speculative indications, mainly on the basis of authority without experimental verification. Hahnemann discovered the remedial powers of drugs and inert substances such as gold, platinum, silica, vegetable charcoal, lycopodium, etc.
