2. edition
The book provides a history of the discipline, how it developed out of homeopathy and how it shares much of the philosophy and methodology of the mother discipline, particularly with regard to the choice of dilution - potency, repeating the dose of the autopathic preparation etc. It concludes that while autopathy is a continuation of homeopathy in a philosophical and methodological sense, it represents an advance of a new quality. Autopathic healing and self-healing are relatively easy to master, requiring a knowledge of uncomplicated principles. Not only is it gentle, it is also effective.
