Foreword to the Issue
Guest Editor Rudolf Verspoor introduces Homeopathy Online's third issue and
Sequential Therapy.
Cover Story
Guest Editor Rudolf Verspoor presents a causal-centered approach to the homeopathic
treatment of chronic illness and explains how such an approach leads to the development of
a more causal, sequential therapy. Causation in a Symptomological
Universe: a Revolution in the Making, examines the history of causality in
homeopathic thinking. The counterpart article, Taking
Homeopathy into the Shadows: a Sequential Causal Approach to Treating Chronic Disease,
sets out the theory and practice of Sequential Therapy.
Philosophy
The term "classical homeopathy" has become more of a dividing line than a
unifying force. In On Pseudo-Classical Homoeopathy, Rajesh Shah approaches this
issue from a critical angle.
Reviews
Faroukh Master, Bombay homeopath and former teacher of Rajan Sankaran, spoke about
pediatric cases in a one day seminar in El Toro, California, USA. Chris Kurz presents his
review of the seminar in A Seminar With Faroukh Master, as well as a one-on-one
interview with Master.
Materia Medica
Increase your toolbox of potentially lifesaving remedies for acute situations. In Pyrogenium,
Ian Townsend shares with us the history of this valuable remedy as well as numerous cases
dating back to the days of Hahnemann wherein Pyrogenium proved to be the
simillimum.
The Crocodile's Opinion
Homeopathic education varies widely from country to country. In Homeopathic Education:
What Should the Future Hold?, Michael Tomlinson offers his native country, Australia,
as a reference point from which to examine homeopathic education around the world.
Education
If you are a student enrolled in a course of homeopathy you might find that Bob Fordham's
analysis of a tutor/student relationship presented in Education for Homeopathic
Practice, An Acute Case-Taking Exercise, applies to you. Then again, if you are a
tutor or teacher of homeopathy you may want to read this article for the very same reason.
Case Review
Homeopathy Online is proud to bring you Sam's Case, Patty Smith's review of
her causal Sequential Therapy treatment of a child with severe health problems.
Interactive Case Analysis
A cyberspace study group. U.K. Homeopath and Sheffield School of Homeopathy Instructor Ian
Townsend presents Homeopathy Online's interactive case analysis.
Community Voice
In Causation, Time and Progression in Homeopathy, David Little offers a
counter-point to this methodology from a "classical" perspective. Guest Editor Verspoor's response to Little's critique is also
appended as a link from the article.
