Posted: Mon Jan 31, 2005 9:09 pm
Dear Friends,
Again, I am alerting the homeopathic community about its ever-growing
and often wonderful homeopathic literature...and we have two more good
examples here, including some important work by people from this homeopathic
discussion group! Cool.
The NEW issue of THE AMERICAN HOMEOPATH is out and is VERY worthy of
reading. I especially loved Julian Winston's article about the history of
women in American homeopathy
This fabulous issue of THE AMERICAN HOMEOPATH contains features on the
history of women in homeopathy by Julian Winston, a talk by David John
Lilley, Homeopathy & the Legal Question by Robert Stewart, interviews with
Brian Kaplan and Edward Stoteler, cases and materia medica by Catherine
Sharfstein, Andre Popen, S.K. Banerjea, Steve Waldstein, Lou Klein, Nandita
Shah, and Farokh Master.
There are also provings on hummingbird by Cynthia Shepard, amethyst by
Barbara Seideneck, and Vincetoxicum by Walter Gluek. Also, Peter Chappell
has written an article about his experience in treating AIDS in Africa.
THREE CHEERS FOR N.A.S.H. for publishing this great issue!
AND FOUR CHEERS FOR MELANIE GRIMES FOR SERVING AS EDITOR OF IT (again!) and
for writing several book reviews!

And Melanie Grimes has written a book by John Bastyr, the famous
naturopath/homeopath for whom one of the great naturopathic medical schools
was named.
Dr. John Bastyr's Philosophy and Practice, Melanie Grimes, RSHom, CCH
"Quite riveting. Couldn't put it down!"
-Julian Winston, historian, editor of "Homeopathy Today"
…a good addition to the literature, a piece of history that could so easily
have been lost, and a great example of how homeopathy is woven through
naturopathic practice.
-Karen Allen, CCH, RC, RSHom(NA), Bastyr University Homeopathy Department
Adjunct Faculty
Dr Bastyr practiced medicine in Seattle, Washington treating more than 50
thousand patients over five generations, for seven decades. The information
gleaned from patients, students, lectures, and directly from Bastyr himself,
contains many findings from his years of practice, many of which have not
been recorded until now.
Known as "The father of Naturopathic Medicine" Bastyr was also a homeopath,
using homeopathy with nearly 90% of his patients. Trained by a student of
Adolfe Lippe, as well as a student of Sebastian Kneipp, Bastyr was a link to
the early practitioners of homeopathy as well as naturopathy.
The book covers his use of hydrotherapy, electrotherapy, nutrition,
chiropractic, botanical medicine, and homeopathy and provides valuable
additions to our clinical materia medica.
The book discusses Bastyr practice of medicine, his philosophy of healing,
his place in the history of medicine and homeopathy in the United States as
well as Washington State. This book provides a numerous addition to clinical
materia medica, as well as insights into the philosophy of Bastyr's
teachers, whom he called, "the Old Timers, "and presents the philosophy of a
man of great integrity in the healing profession.
Bastyr's conversion to homeopathy was an important move for the modern
naturopathic profession…His balanced emphasis of homeopathy as a therapeutic
modality coequal with nutrition, hydrotherapy and botanical medicine assured
its place in the ongoing development of naturopathic science.
