About Rudi Verspoor and Steven Decker:

Rudi Verspoor has been studying Hahnemann's medical system for more than two decades and has acquired extensive clinical experience, particularly relating to complex and chronic cases, in the application of the Heilkunst system.

His abiding interest in history and philosophy has led him to undertake continual research into various problems and issues that have arisen in traditional homeopathic treatment. This research has led to the development of a systematic dynamic approach to therapeutics that is now being offered in a comprehensive form to others through a five-year program.

Rudi Verspoor has written several books providing new insights based on his research and clinical experience and has lectured widely in Canada, the US, the UK and Europe. He served as the Director of the British Institute of Homeopathy Canada from 1993 to early 2001, and developed their Homeopathic Practitioner Diploma Program. He has taught extensively both in-class and on a distance learning basis. His previous experience has been in public policy, planning and administration.

He helped to found and is still active in the National United Professional Association of Trained Homeopaths (NUPATH) and the Canadian/International Heilkunst Association (C/IHA).

He has advised government on health-care policy. Part of his time is spent advising the Canadian government on health-care policy and in working for greater acceptance of and access to homeopathy and Heilkunst amongst policy makers and the public.

His publications include:
Homeopathy Renewed, A Sequential Approach to the Treatment of Chronic Illness (with Patty Smith);
A Time for Healing; Homeopathy Re-examined: Beyond the Classical Paradigm (with Steven Decker);
The Dynamic Legacy: Hahnemann from Homeopathy to Heilkunst (with Steven Decker).

He also has written various articles for Canadian and International journals.

Steven Decker is a scholar par excellence, who has dedicated his life to the pursuit of knowledge and its dissemination. He has spent the last 25 years immersing himself in the works of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Rudolf Steiner and Wilhelm Reich, among many others.

His University studies in Germany led him into a deep appreciation of the works and life of Goethe and later into an extensive study of his scientific writings. It was in this context that his discovery of the writings of Dr. Samuel Hahnemann took place.

He realized, in studying the original works of Dr. Hahnemann in German, that these works formed a critical part of a dynamic system of thought applied to medicine, but that they had been misunderstood and mistranslated. His intensive work and retranslations of Hahnemann's writings have yielded new insights into their meaning and have shown the prevailing confusion in traditional homeopathic writings and teachings.

Because of his deep appreciation for, and understanding of, the German language in the context and times in which Dr. Hahnemann was lived and wrote, his translation of Hahnemann's works, and in particular his Interlinear Extended Organon, has been hailed by the homeopathic community as the most brilliant rendering of Hahnemann's genius.

All of this work has opened a perspective on what Coleridge called the "Dynamic System," which has had many contributors since the inception of the modern scientific period. Beholding them all as a unity constituting a single coherent system of thought has been his constant endeavor over the last quarter century.

This Dynamic System is the key to understanding homeopathy and Hahnemann's complete medical system. In fact, what has emerged is an entire subterranean Western medical system, founded on the blueprint laid down by Dr. Hahnemann. The results of these ongoing investigations are currently being published in The Dynamic Legacy, a book written in collaboration with Rudi Verspoor. A native Californian, he resides in Santa Barbara.
