Hahnemann–Samuel Christian Friedrich

Hahnemann–Samuel Christian Friedrich

A German physician (1755–1843) who founded homeopathy, and whose work, Organon der rationellen Heilkunde (Principles of Rational Medicine), delineated its key principles:  
• Like cures like—Law of similars;  
• The more diluted the remedy, the greater its action—Law of the infinitesimal dose;
• Disease is specific to an individual.
